Hello
Astronauts from the United States and Russia were part of the mission that had lift off from Kennedy Space Center.
NASA and ISRO are involved in NISAR, an Earth science satellite that will be launched in 2024.
For every potentially damaging asteroid spotted, there are millions falling towards the Earth unseen.
In 2020, astronomers announced the discovery of the Earth-size, habitable-zone planet d, which is on a 37-day orbit, along with two other worlds.
The capsule is headed for a wide orbit around the moon and then a return to Earth with a Pacific splashdown in about three weeks.
NASA's DART spacecraft successfully slammed into a distant asteroid at hypersonic speed on Monday.
A livestream showed images taken by DART's camera as the cube-shaped 'impactor' vehicle, streaked into the asteroid Dimorphos, about the size of a football stadium.
Extensive fuel leak repairs could require that the rocket be hauled off the pad and back into its hangar, possibly pushing the flight into October.
The discovery happened with the help of a special software that was used to analyse the telescopic pictures
Athira, the daughter of Peyad natives V Venu and Preetha, has been interested in space and astronauts ever since she was studying in school. Her knowledge widened when she began attending the classes of Astra, an astronomical society in Kerala's capital city.
