Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has completed the design process of its ambitious moon mission, Chandrayaan-2, after successfully launching its first ever unmanned Channdrayaan-1 earlier this year. ISRO Chairman G Madhavan Nair said that the space agency is currently working on the orbital flight vehicle, while it will get lunar craft from Russia under mutual agreement.

Mr. Nair added: ''The landing of the rover would be decided after we analyse the data sent by Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft. Now we are set to build a prototype of Chandrayaan-2 and this would happen next year. We will build upon our success with Chandrayaan-1.''

He said that ISRO has received some important climatic and radio based clues from its first mission, and it will try to overcome causes of malfunctioning, like experienced by 'Star Sensor' on Chandrayaan-1, in April this year.

Mr Nair expressed satisfaction over the success of Chanrayaan-1, adding that ISRO has achieved 95 percent of the scientific objective of Chandrayaan-1 while the remaining would be achieved in the coming months.

The ISRO Chief further added: "The redundancy factor would be the utmost on the minds of the scientists working on Chandrayaan-2 after their good experience with the first mission."
