Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is planning to explore the dark side or the permanently shadowed regions of the Moon via its Lunar Polar Exploration (LUPEX) mission. The space agency has collaborated with Japan for the upcoming lunar expedition which appears to be picking up pace of late. ISRO is also gearing up for Chandrayaan-3, which is expected to lift-off in June. The prime goal of the LUPEX mission will be to confirm the presence of water in the polar regions of the Moon.
