  • The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has successfully concluded the flight acceptance hot test of the CE-20 Cryogenic Engine.
  • This engine intends to power the Cryogenic Upper Stage of the LVM3 launch vehicle for the Lunar Mission, Chandrayaan-3.
  • This cryogenic engine is further integrated with propellant tanks, associated fluid lines, and space structures, as described by the Space Agency.
  • This flight acceptance hot test comes a day after the Chandrayaan-3 lander successfully completed the crucial EMI-EMC (Electromagnetic Interference/ Electromagnetic Compatibility) test.
  • Chandrayaan-3 is India’s third moon mission and is a follow-on mission to Chandrayaan-2 to demonstrate end-to-end capability in safe landing and roving on the lunar surface.
