The next mission will be Chandrayaan-3 . It is suggested to be launched in 2024.

India
is likely to collaborate with Japan in this mission but the mission is not yet defined. Most likely it will be
a lander-rover mission to perform In situ sampling and analysis of collected lunar material and
demonstrate lunar night survival technologies.[

India has launched 106 satellites since 1975. Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is
responsible for India's Space Program. In February 2017, ISRO has created a new record by
launching 104 satellites in one go. Out of these 104 satellites, only 3 of these were Indian
Satellites.

Types of Satellites and Applications

Satellites can be classified by their function since they are launched into space to do a specific job. The
satellite must be designed specifically to fulfill its role. There are nine different types of satellites
i.e. Communications Satellite, Remote Sensing Satellite, Navigation Satellite, LEO, MEO, HEO, GPS,
GEOs, Drone Satellite, Ground Satellite, Polar Satellite. Communications satellites are artificial
satellites that relay receive signals from an earth station and then retransmit the signal to other earth
stations. They commonly move in a geostationary orbit. A remote Sensing instrument collects
information about an object.
Global Positioning System (GPS) consists of up to 32 medium Earth orbit satellites in six different orbital
planes, with the exact number of satellites varying as older satellites are retired and replaced.
Operational since 1978 and globally available since 1994, GPS is currently the world's most utilized
satellite navigation system.
