Indian Space and Research Organisation chairman K Sivan said on Staurday that the space agency will try to establish link with the lost Vikram Lander for the next 14 days, whose last portion was not executed the right way.
"The last portion was not executed the right way, in that phase only we lost the link with the Lander, and could not establish communication subsequently. Right now the communication is lost. We will try to establish a link for the next 14 days," Sivan said in an interview to the Doordarshan, asserting that the mission is close to being a 100 per cent success. The ground station lost contact with the Lander minutes before its touchdown on the Moon's South Pole early on Saturday.
