Detailed explanation-1: -Sarabhai is being celebrated by ISRO. The Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and 3D view of the crater generated using the Fore, Nadir and Aft images from TMC-2 reveals average depth of the crater as 1.7 km from the raised crater rim and average slope of the crater walls is in the range 25-30°.
Detailed explanation-2: -On 18 September 2008, the First Manmohan Singh Cabinet approved the mission. Although ISRO finalised the payload for Chandrayaan-2 per schedule, the mission was postponed in January 2013 and rescheduled to 2016 because Russia was unable to develop the lander on time.
Detailed explanation-3: -Orbiter High Resolution Camera (OHRC) OHRC provides high-resolution images of the landing site - ensuring the Lander’s safe touchdown by detecting any craters or boulders prior to separation. The images it captures, taken from two different look angles, serve dual purposes.
Detailed explanation-4: -One of the most path-breaking discovery was made by Chandrayaan 2 in August last year. Indian Space Research Organisation’s (ISRO) indigenous instrument had detected the unambiguous presence of hydroxyl (OH) as well as water molecules (H20) on the lunar surface with the precision of differentiating between the two.
