Chandrayaan-3 Made A Successful Landing on the Moon
SPACE reports that India has now joined the nations that have made a soft landing on the moon on August 23 with its Chandrayaan-3. India became the fourth nation to have successfully touched the moon’s surface with the US, China, and the Soviet Union.
The mission of Chandrayaan-3 landed at the same location Russia’s failed Luna-25 mission was aiming for. According to the reports, Chandrayaan-3 will deploy a solar-powered rover in order to study the moon’s soil and rocks.
Chandrayaan-3 is expected to last one lunar day, which is about 14 Earth days. When the sun finally sets on Chandrayaan-3, its battery will deplete and will bring an end to India’s historic mission.
