The Indian Space Research Organisation's Chandrayaan-2 orbiter successfully avoided potential collisions with Korea's Danuri and NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter through careful maneuvering.
The three spacecraft's orbits intersect over the Moon's poles, and without a formal protocol for such intersections, collaboration between ISRO, NASA, and KARI is essential to prevent collisions.
Chandrayaan-2 operates at 100 km, mapping the lunar surface and searching for water, highlighting the cooperative efforts among nations in lunar exploration.
Danuri experienced over 40 potential collision warnings this year, emphasizing the need for vigilance in managing orbital paths in shared space missions.
