Science - Earth and Planetary Atmospheres: People: Eugene Ustinov

Chandrayaan-1
Chardrayaan-1 is the first Indian Mission to the Moon devoted to high-resolution remote sensing of the lunar surface features in visible, near infrared, X-ray and low energy gamma ray regions.

Aura
Aura (Latin for breeze) was launched July 15, 2004. Aura is part of the Earth Science Projects Division.
