India’s Fifth Lunar Mission: Lupex
India’s National Space Commission has approved its fifth lunar mission, the Lunar Polar Exploration Mission (Lupex), in collaboration with Japan’s space agency JAXA. This mission, following the success of Chandrayaan-3, will explore water and other resources at the Moon’s south pole. Lupex, designed to operate for 100 days, will use advanced tools for drilling and analysis in permanently shadowed regions. India will build the lander, while Japan will construct the rover and rocket. Lupex will support future lunar missions, including plans for India to send astronauts to the Moon by 2040, advancing international cooperation in space exploration.
