  • ISRO has announced that the lander module (LM), consisting of the 'Vikram' lander and 'Pragyan' rover, is anticipated to make contact with the lunar surface at 18:04 hours on Wednesday, August 23. Earlier, ISRO had indicated that the touchdown was scheduled for 5:47 pm on August 23.
  • The highly anticipated event on August 23, starting at 17:27 Hrs IST, which will be live-streamed across various platforms including the ISRO Website, its YouTube channel, ISRO's Facebook page, and DD National TV channel.
  • Chandrayaan-3, a continuation of Chandrayaan-2, aims to showcase its complete capability in ensuring a secure landing and effective rover operations on the lunar surface.
  • Chandrayaan-3's mission goals encompass accomplishing a soft and safe landing on the lunar terrain, demonstrating the mobility of the rover on the Moon, and conducting on-site scientific experiments.
  • The lander boasts the ability to gently touch down at a designated lunar location and release the rover, which will conduct thorough chemical analyses of the Moon's surface during its traverses.
  • Both the lander and the rover are equipped with scientific instruments to carry out comprehensive experiments on the lunar landscape.
  • The mission is expected to make significant contributions to our understanding of the moon. It will study the lunar surface and atmosphere, and it will also look for signs of water ice, which could be a valuable resource for future human missions to the moon.
