Chandrayaan-3 is India's third lunar mission with the objectives of demonstrating a safe soft landing on the lunar surface, conducting rover operations, and on-site experiments. The mission includes a rover to conduct experiments, a lander to land on the Moon and deploy the rover, and a propulsion module to carry the lander and rover into lunar orbit. Chandrayaan-3 launched on August 23, 2023 and successfully landed its Vikram lander on the Moon's south pole, making India the first country to soft land in that region. The rover Pragyan will now explore the lunar surface for 14 days.
