Russia s Luna-25 crashed on the lunar surface, raising concerns about India s Chandrayaan-3 mission. However ISRO scientists have chalked out what was done differently for Chandrayaan-3 to achieve a successful landing on the ‘the dark side of the Moon’
If it lands successfully, the Chandrayaan-3 is expected to remain functional for two weeks, running a series of experiments including a spectrometer analysis of the mineral composition of the lunar surface
Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft's lander Vikram today successfully separated from its propulsion module and continued its journey towards the Moon where it is expected to make a soft landing on August 23.
