August 23, a day when the scientists of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) made history, when all their hard work, dreams, hopes, and emotions turned into reality after the Chandrayaan-3 lander successfully touched down on the south pole surface of the Moon.
India is all set to face one of the most terrifying twenty minutes when the Vikram lander goes in to attempt a soft landing on the moon's south surface in the evening.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has shared the latest pictures of the moon that have been taken from a 70-kilometre distance by the country's ambitious lunar mission Chandrayaan-3. The pictures were captured by a camera that was tasked with guiding the lander during its historic touchdown on Wednesday.
India is all set to create history if its third lunar mission, Chandrayaan-3, makes a soft and successful landing on the south polar region of the moon on Wednesday, August 23 at 6:04 p.m.
If ISRO's Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft lands a robotic lunar rover, it will make India the fourth country to master the technology of soft-landing on the moon's surface after China, US, and the former Soviet Union.
