India’s third lunar mission Chandrayaan-3 successfully entered the orbit of the moon on Saturday after traversing for over 300,000 km in three weeks in deep space following a precise course meticulously charted by the Indian Space Research Organisation.
About Chandrayan 3
Chandrayaan-3 is the third and most recent lunar Indian Space Research exploration mission under the Chandrayaan programme. It consists of a lander named Vikram and a rover named Pragyan similar to Chandrayaan-2, but does not have an orbiter. Its propulsion module behaves like a communication relay satellite.
