A very interesting and shocking news is coming out from the world of space science and modern space research, which is currently a major center of discussion in the global technical circles. Now Pakistan’s name is also going to be added to the race to explore the infinite depths of space and the mysteries of the Moon, and to achieve this goal, it has got the big support of Dragon i.e. China. To strengthen its hold on the space research front, Islamabad plans to use the lift of China’s Moon mission or its spacecraft. With the cooperation of China, Pakistan is preparing to send its first ambitious lunar rover to the lunar surface, with which a new chapter of space technical cooperation between the two countries has started. This news has attracted the attention of defense and space experts around the world, because Pakistan, which has traditionally lagged far behind in the space race, is now taking steps towards landing directly on the Moon with the help of China’s technological strength.
What is Pakistan’s lunar rover ‘Jinnah-1’ and its features?
The spacecraft and rover being prepared under this first Moon mission of Pakistan have been given a very special name, which is being known as ‘Jinnah-1’ (ICEST-1 or iCUBE-Q/Jinnah-1 related lunar projects). The main objective of this rover is to scientifically study the soil, minerals and geographical structure present on the surface of the Moon. Although Pakistan does not have any heavy rocket or deep-space launch vehicle of its own that can successfully deliver any payload to the Moon, this rover is being linked with China’s Chang’e series Moon mission under strategic agreements between Beijing and Islamabad. With the help of Chinese spacecraft, a complete plan has been prepared to land this rover in the lunar orbit and then on the surface from there. Through this project, Pakistan not only wants to register its presence in space science, but it is also being presented diplomatically as a big symbol of the unbreakable friendship between China and Pakistan.
When will he visit the moon and what are the predictions of space experts?
According to experts and various international space agencies who keep an eye on space programs, preparations are going on rapidly regarding the time limit of this mission. When China sends its spacecraft towards the Moon under its upcoming Moon missions, this rover or related payload will be sent along with it for a trip to the Moon. Although in such complex space missions, there are often changes in the schedule due to technical and logistics reasons, still there is every hope that this mission will take off on the ground within the coming few years. Scientists around the world are keeping a close eye on this entire incident to see how China is expanding its space technology and working on a policy to include its allies in the space club. In the world of space research, it will be very exciting to see to what extent this first Moon exploration of Pakistan through ‘Jinnah-1’ is able to fulfill its scientific goals and how successful it proves to be in revealing the secrets of the Moon.
