💡 Explanation:
Chandrayaan-1's mission ended prematurely in August 2009 due to thermal problems - intense solar radiation overheated and damaged the spacecraft's sensitive electronic components and detectors. The ISRO ground stations lost contact because the onboard systems failed from heat damage, not because mission objectives were complete.
