ISRO’s lunar mission Chandrayaan-3 is on track as the spacecraft inches closer to the Moon. In a massive success, Chandrayaan-3’s Lander Module separated from Propulsion Module on August 17. On August 16, the spacecraft completed all of its lunar bound maneuvers. Now, the lander module is set to descend to a slightly lower orbit upon a deboosting planned for August 18. The soft landing on the south pole of the Moon will be attempted on August 23. India will likely become the first country to reach the less explored south pole of the Moon after successful landing. Chandrayaan-3’s lift-off happened on July 14 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Siharikota.
