Why is world curious about Moon s South Pole? Chandrayaan-2 mission has crossed a major milestone with the precise lunar orbit insertion manoeuvre. The precise lunar orbit insertion maneuver was carried out at 9 am for about 30 minutes and Chandrayaan 2 was precisely inserted in the defined orbit. There will be further four orbit manoeuvres after this to make the spacecraft enter into its final orbit passing over the lunar poles at a distance of about 100 km from Moon s surface.
