India’s first unmanned and world’s only 4th (Soviet Union, US and Japan sent mission to moon before) such lunar spacecraft Chandrayaan (Chandrayaan is a Indian language Hindi word in English if translated is Moon + Craft = trip to the moon) put a probe with Indian flag on moon’s surface reading its measurements. In the course of next two years, Chandrayaan 1 will map a 3D atlas of the Moon and also check for the presence of water-ice with the help of Chandryaan instruments.
Here is the year old video from ISRO describing what Chandrayaan will do ?
