ISRO delays most complex Chandrayaan-2 mission due to 'technical snag'

India's space agency said it delayed the launch of its second lunar mission, Chandrayaan-2, in the early hours of Monday due to a "technical snag" which was observed less than an hour before the scheduled liftoff.

"Revised launch date will be announced later," the Indian Space Research Organization said in a tweet https://twitter.com/isro/status/1150512237045379072.

The mission, dubbed by the ISRO chairman as the most complex mission it has ever undertaken, was scheduled to launch at 09:21 p.m. GMT, or 02:51 a.m. local time.
