Match the following missions to their respective purposes:

List-IList-II
MissionPurpose
(A) Chandrayaan-3(I) Development and launch of a dual-frequency synthetic aperture radar satellite
(B) Gaganyaan-3(II) Attempt for soft landing on moon
(C) NISAR(III) Solar Observatory Mission
(D) Aditya-L1(IV) India's first crewed (human) space mission

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Option 1 -> Chandrayaan-3 matches with soft landing on moon, Gaganyaan-3 with human space mission, NISAR with synthetic aperture radar satellite, and Aditya-L1 with Solar Observatory - this is the accurate matching.

Option 2 -> Incorrectly matches Chandrayaan-3 with radar satellite and NISAR with moon landing - fundamentally wrong pairing.

Option 3 -> Incorrectly matches Chandrayaan-3 with human mission and Aditya-L1 with moon landing - completely reversed mission purposes.

Option 4 -> Incorrectly matches Chandrayaan-3 with solar mission and Aditya-L1 with moon landing - wrong assignment of space exploration goals.


Hence, Option 1: (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III) -> Chandrayaan-3 successfully achieved soft landing on the moon's south polar region in August 2023; Gaganyaan-3 is ISRO's ambitious human spaceflight program; NISAR is a collaborative NASA-ISRO earth observation satellite using dual-frequency SAR technology; and Aditya-L1 is India's first dedicated solar mission studying the Sun from the L1 Lagrange point -> correct
