It is a moment of pride for India, but also for us as we are also a part of the sub-continent. So, congratulations India, said Moragoda

India eyes to become the first country to reach the uncharted south pole of Earth's only natural satellite.

The Assam School Education Department has asked all schools to organise special assemblies of students to watch live stream of Chandrayaan-3 landing on the moon.

The space agency may postpone the touchdown to August 27 in the event that health parameters of the lander module are found to be "abnormal"

The Chandrayaan-3 mission is on schedule, the ISRO said on Tuesday, a day before the scheduled touch-down of its lander on the surface of the Moon.

India will be the fourth country in the world to achieve this feat after the United States, Russia, and China, but India will be the only country in the world to land on the lunar south pole.

The space agency also said the Mission Operations Complex had now more routes to communicate with the lander. In other words, the Chandrayaan-2 Orbiter will be the backup communication channel for ISRO with the lander.

Live actions will be available on the ISRO website, its YouTube channel, Facebook, and public broadcaster DD National TV from 17:27 IST on Aug 23, 2023.

Two candidates from Haryana have been arrested from here for allegedly cheating in a test conducted by the ISRO.

Chandrayaan-3 is set to land on the moon on August 23, 2023 (Wednesday), around 18:04 IST

The Moon lander or the lander is part of the Indian Space Research Organisation’s (ISRO) Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft.

Just a few hours ago, the Chandrayaan-3's lander 'Vikram' successfully detached from the spacecraft. The lander and rover, Pragyaan, are now expected to land on the Moon on August 23.

Chandrayaan-2's achievements: Global lunar sodium map, crater size insights, surface water ice detection with IIRS.

Separation of the lander module from the propulsion module is planned for August 17, ISRO said in a post on X

Aditya-L1, the first space-based Indian observatory to study the Sun , is getting ready for the launch.

Drogue parachutes, packed within pyro-based devices known as mortars, are ingeniously designed to eject the parachutes into the air upon command

ISRO has successfully conducted a series of tests on drogue parachutes, which would play a pivotal role in stabilising the crew module

The spacecraft will spend between three and seven days about 100 kilometers above the lunar surface before reaching the Boguslawsky crater area.

The Indian space agency said: "Chandrayaan-3's orbit is reduced to 174 km x 1437 km following a manuevre performed today

India's third lunar mission – Chandrayaan-3 – is in good health and its most critical phase will be the orbit determination process
