Factors such as slopes, sun exposure, and communication were considered in selecting the landing site. A new hazard detection system will help ensure a soft touchdown, while a laser sensor will measure the craft s velocity. Lessons from the previous Chandrayaan-2 mission have been incorporated to overcome challenges. The mission s instruments will capture data on location, speed, altitude, and environment. Chandrayaan-3 represents a significant milestone for India s space exploration efforts.
ISRO's Chandrayaan-3 lander, Vikram, features several improvements over its predecessor, including stronger legs, extra fuel capacity, new sensors, software upgrades, and more solar panels and antennas, making it a much more resilient lunar mission, Technology & Science News, Times Now
