Chandrayaan-3 Success at Low Budget Paves Way for Other Space Flights
When Indian space agency scientists set out to design the Chandrayaan-3 moon mission, they knew they had one more chance to make history with a landing on the lunar south pole after a failed attempt four years ago. They also had to do it on a shoestring budget and ended up spending only Rs. 6.15 billion on the mission.
