In the wake of the successful launch of the Chandrayaan-3 space mission, the Indian education ministry is taking a significant step to enhance space education in the country. They have announced the launch of a dedicated portal and a set of specialized courses centered around Chandrayaan. This initiative aims to further celebrate and educate students about India’s remarkable strides in space exploration.
New Education Portal ‘Apna Chandrayaan’:
The official launch of the education website, aptly named ‘Apna Chandrayaan,’ is scheduled for Tuesday, October 17. This portal will serve as a valuable resource for students and space enthusiasts alike. In an official notification, the ministry has urged all higher education institutions to promote this portal and make the special course modules available to their students and teachers. The goal is to encourage enrollment in these special courses to foster a deeper understanding of India’s space endeavors.
