The Chandrayaan mission by?Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is possibly the greatest example of how giving up is never an option in life.?
Chandrayaan-2 might have failed as mission, but the officials worked relentlessly to establish connection with Vikram lander days after it crashed on the moon.?

ISRO might have failed on the that front, but none of it has dampened their spirit, and they are already on the path to start afresh with Chandrayaan-3.
The space research organisation started working on the next iteration of the project, which they tentatively call Chandrayaan-3 and have set a deadline of November 2020.?
Reports state that the Bengaluru-based ISRO has formed an overall panel with three sub-panels to work on the project and held high-level meetings in October.?
The announcement earned a lot of praises online, here's what people had to say:?
#1?
#2?
#3
#4
Further, the new mission is expected to include only a lander and a rover as the same of the Chandrayaan-2 are working well. Among the top priority for the new mission is to strengthen the legs of the?lander so that it lands with high velocity without problems.??
Earlier this month, ISRO chief K Sivan had said, "Let me assure that ISRO will pull all its experience, knowledge and technical prowess to set things right and demonstrate soft landing in near the future. On the technology part yes, we could not achieve a soft landing, but all the systems functioned until 300 metres from the moon's surface. Very valuable data is available to set things right."
The overview panel held a meeting on Tuesday to review the configuration of Chandrayaan-3.?
They have also taken into consideration suggestions made by the various panels on aspects like navigation, propulsion, sensors, engineering, guidance etc.
Hoping ISRO will be able to successfully land on the moon next year.
