New Delhi. Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has done a new feat leaving behind all the countries. ISRO’s Chandrayaan-2 has achieved great success and discovered sodium on the lunar surface. This success is a huge success in space research, which no other country has been able to do so far. By the way, our Chandrayaan has not done such a shocking thing for the first time. Prior to this, ISRO’s Chandrayaan was the only one that searched for water on the moon. This is nothing less than a big achievement for India. After this discovery, the possibility of getting sodium in large quantities on the moon has also increased.
Big success for India
After this success, ISRO expressed its happiness that the X-ray spectrometer ‘Class’ of Chandrayaan-2 has mapped sodium for the first time on the lunar surface. With this we will now be able to study the surface of the Moon. From this we can get a lot of information about our solar system. Let us tell you that Chandrayaan has found sodium on the moon’s first surface exosphere interaction. With this, scientists will now be able to gather other information about the surface. This is the first time the presence of sodium has been detected on the moon. This is a big success for the Indian scientist.

Chandrayaan has also discovered water
Now scientists are trying to find out how much sodium is present on the moon. Sodium atoms found on the Moon have also been found in the Moon’s atmosphere. The special thing in this is that very few sodium atoms have been found in any region. Daily variation of sodium atoms on the moon has also been detected. It is worth noting that before this Chandrayaan has also discovered water on the Moon.
