Chandrayaan 3 consists of a lander named Vikram and a rover named Pragyan similar to those of the Chandrayaan-2. Its propulsion module acts like an orbiter. The propulsion module carried the lander and rover configuration until the spacecraft attained a 153 × 163 km lunar orbit.
Many Indian celebs shared their excitement about the Chandrayaan 3 landing on social media. R Madhavan, Shekhar Kapur, Rishab Shetty and others expressed their excitement on social media.
According to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the lander will begin its Moon landing descent at 5.45 pm today, and the touchdown will happen at about 6.05 PM. The Chandrayaan-3 was put into orbit on July 14 in a copybook style by India's heavy-lift rocket LVM3.
The spacecraft completed orbiting around the earth and headed towards the Moon on August 1. If Chandrayaan-3 successfully lands on the Moon's south pole, India will become the first country to softly land a spacecraft on the lunar south pole, and the fourth country to achieve a soft landing on the Moon, after the United States, the Soviet Union, and China.
