Chandrayaan-2 narrowly escapes collision with Nasa's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter over Moon's north pole

India Today  

The Indian Space Research Organisation has said that it saved the Chandrayaan-2 orbiter from colliding with Nasa’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter over the Moon’s north pole. Isro performed a Collision Avoidance Manoeuvre on Chandrayaan-2 orbiter in October to avoid the incident that could have triggered a major debris field and massive loss for the agency. “Both the agencies deemed that the situation warranted a collision avoidance manoeuvre to mitigate the close approach risk, and it was mutually agreed that Chandrayaan-2 Orbiter would undergo the CAM,” Isro said in a statement. “It is common for satellites in Earth Orbit to undergo Collision Avoidance Manoeuvres to mitigate collision risk due to space objects including space debris and operational spacecraft.
