Chandrayaan-1's mission declared over

Chandrayaan-1 was a lunar probe launched by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). It was equipped with advanced X-ray spectrometers for investigation. After suffering from several technical problems including failure of the star sensors and insufficient thermal shielding, Chandrayaan stopped sending radio signals on August 29, 2009 shortly after which the ISRO officially declared the mission over. Chandrayaan operated for 312 days from October 2008. For more information, visit the Web page,http://www.isro.org/Chandrayaan/htmls/home.htm
