Vikram Lander

Laser instrument onboard a NASA spacecraft orbiting the Moon has successfully pinged the Vikram lander of India's Chandrayaan-3 mission, the US space agency said.

NASA's Laser Retroreflector Array (LRA) was accommodated on the Chandrayaan-3 Vikram lander under international collaboration.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has congratulated the Indian Space and Research Organisation (ISRO) for achieving another technological milestone in space.

Chandrayaan-3’s Lander Module, Vikram, along with the rover Pragyan, successfully landed on the Moon's South Polar Region at the Shiva Shakti Point.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Friday said that the Vikram lander module of Chandrayaan-3 blew off 2.06 tonnes of lunar epiregolith (Moon Dust) and generated a "spectacular ejecta halo".

There is now no hope of waking up the Chandrayaan-3's moon lander and rover, an eminent space scientist said on Friday, signalling a possible end to India's third lunar mission.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has been trying to restore communication with Chandrayaan-3's Vikram lander and Pragyan rover after the two were put to sleep earlier this month.

India's space agency ISRO made efforts today to re-establish communication with rover Pragyan and lander Vikram to ascertain their wake-up condition.

The space agency had stated that it would try to re-establish communication with both devices on September 22 after more than two-week-long lunar night.

With dawn breaking on the Moon, ISRO is now gearing up to try to reestablish communication with its lunar mission Chandrayaan-3's solar-powered lander Vikram and rover Pragyan, to revive them so that they can continue with scientific experiments.

Chandrayaan-3 made a textbook landing on the moon's surface on August 23, 40 days after it was launched from Earth.

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) of the American space agency NASA has captured an image of the Chandrayaan-3 landing site. The spacecraft is currently near the moon’s south pole since its successful soft landing on August 23.

The Indian Space Research organisation on Tuesday put out a 3-dimensional anaglyph image of the Chandrayaan-3 Vikram lander from the south pole of the Moon.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Monday said that Chandrayaan-3's Vikram lander made a touchdown on the lunar surface for a second time. This comes days after the successful moon landing of India's third lunar mission.

Chandrayaan-3's lander Vikram will go to sleep mode on the moon, India's space agency ISRO said today, hours after announcing that it had exceeded its mission by "landing on moon, again".
