Lunar Polar Exploration (LUPEX) Mission● LUPEX is a robotic lunar mission by ISRO and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).

● The mission aims to send lunar rover and lander to explore the South Pole region of the Moon in 2024.

● Objective :- It will demonstrate new surface exploration technologies related to vehicular transport and test lunar night survival capabilities for sustainable lunar exploration in the region.

● Contribution :- JAXA is likely to provide the H3 launch vehicle and the rover. While ISRO would be responsible for the lander for this mission.

Quarks -● Quark ➔ fundamental constituent of matter and is defined as an elementary particle.● Quarks ➔ combine to produce composite particles called hadrons, the most stable of which are neutrons and protons which are the components of atomic nuclei.● Interact with the strong nuclear force.● Protons and neutrons belong to the category of Quarks.

Tissue culture –● Plant tissue culture ➔ technique of in vitro growing cells, tissues, organs, etc.

● Through tissue culture whole plants could be regenerated from explants, i.e., any part of a plant taken out and grown in a test tube, under sterile conditions in special nutrient media.

● This capacity to generate a whole plant from any cell/explant is called totipotency.

● Even if the plant is infected with a virus, the meristem (apical and axillary) is free of virus.

●Hence, one can remove the meristem and grow it in vitro to obtain virus-free plants.

● Scientists have succeeded in culturing meristems of banana, sugarcane, potato, etc.

Rohini Sounding Rocket -
The Indian Space Research Organization(ISRO) is planning the 200th successful launch of the Rohini RH-200 sounding rocket.

● RH-200 ➔ Part of the Rohini-sounding rocket family used by the ISRO for atmospheric studies.● It is a two-stage rocket capable of climbing to a height of 70 km.● The 200 in the name denotes the diameter of the rocket in mm.● The first and second stages of RH-200 are powered by solid motors.ExtraShots -

Sounding Rocket -●One or two-stage solid propellant rockets.● Serves as platforms for testing prototypes of new components or subsystems.
