ECIL is proud to be associated with the Chandrayaan-3 Mission by way of providing the indigenously designed antenna systems needed for Tracking, Telemetry, Command and Ranging (TTC&R) operations of moon mission program through ISRO Telemetry Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC).
ECIL supplied the 32-meter-Deep Space Network (DSN) antenna which facilitated the vital communication support for Chandrayaan mission.
This 300ton Antenna System has been built indigenously in association with Bhabha Atomic Research Center (BARC), U R Rao Satellite Centre (URSC) and ISTRAC. The antennae precisely points to the spacecraft orbiting around moon at about 4 lakh KM distance from earth for command-and-control operations.
