Isro will attempt the landing on August 23 between 5.30 and 6 p.m., according to Union Minister of Science, Technology, and Space Jitendra Singh, who expressed confidence in the project.
Chandrayaan-3’s lander split from the propulsion module on Thursday, entering the penultimate phase of its lunar voyage, bringing India one step closer to a successful lunar landing, according to the Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro). If the August 23 touchdown goes as planned, the Vikram lander’s tiny lunar rover, Pragyan, will emerge from it, making India one of only a few countries to have visited the dusty, speckled surface of the Moon.
“Mission Chandrarayaan-3: The Lander Module (LM) said the words, “Thanks for the ride, mate.” The LM and PM have been successfully separated, and the LM will now debop tomorrow (Friday) at roughly 1600 IST to move to a little lower orbit. India currently has three around the moon, according to a post made on Thursday from Isro’s official X (formerly Twitter) account.
Jitendra Singh, the Union Minister of Science, Technology, and Space, expressed confidence in the mission and said Isro will attempt the landing on August 12 between 5.30pm and 6pm.Even though the US and the former USSR began their space missions before us, and America also put a person on the moon in 1969, it was our Chandrayaan that brought images of water on the moon’s surface back to Earth and startled everyone, including the Americans. The Chandrayaan mission’s discoveries led the whole community to seek out scientific explanations for these puzzles for the first time, Singh said. “We always heard fantastic stories and wondered if there were people living on the moon.
Without a doubt, the discovery the minister was referring to was made by a NASA mineralogy spectrometer aboard Chandrayaan-1 while it orbited the moon, not by the detection of water that could be seen. The spectrometer verified that water molecules were present and bound up in the minerals that were observed on the lunar surface.st 23.
