The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) announced earlier that it is all set to launch its second mission to the Moon, ' the Chandrayaan-2' on July 15th, 2019 from the Satish Dhawan Space Center in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh.

At 2.51 am early morning of Monday, the GSLV MKIII rocket will fire the mission which involves Vikram - the lander and Progyan - the rover to travel the distance and do a soft-landing on September 6.

And ahead of its launch, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has finally unveiled the first images of the launch vehicle of the lunar mission today.

ISRO's earlier mission to the Moon in 2008, called Chandrayaan, not only succeeded but also made the remarkable discovery of water on the lunar surface.

The mission is to the lunar South Pole region because the possibility of water being present in the permanently shadowed areas of the region is higher. A large section of this surface stays in the shadow compared to the North Pole.
