ISRO's Chandrayaan-3 has made a new history. With the successful landing of the Vikram lander, India became the first country to reach the south pole of the moon. Now the responsibility of carrying out the mission lies with the Pragyan Rover, a 6-wheeled robotic device that has separated from the lander Vikram. It will now move on the lunar surface and collect data and send it to ISRO.
India becomes fourth country to reach the moon. On August 23, the Vikram lander of the Chandrayaan made a soft landing at exactly 6:04 pm, a feat that only three countries in the world have ever achieved. After the landing, the real mission has now begun, the scientists are working on it. The first phase was to separate the rover from the lander Vikram. which has been done successfully.
The rover landed from Vikram four hours after landing:::
Chandrayaan-3 consists of three modules, it consists of propulsion module, Vikram lander and Pragyan rover, Vikram lander has landed on the lunar surface, Pragyan rover was inside it. The Pragyan rover came out four hours after the soft landing as ISRO had designed the mission. After ISRO's command, Pragyan rover separated from Vikram at around 10.15 am and started movement on the lunar surface to continue the mission.
This is the process:::
The side panel of the Vikram lander was first opened to land the Pragyan rover. This was followed by a ramp to the moon's surface. From the same ramp, the six-wheeled robotic vehicle, our Pragyan Rover, landed. Now, Chandrayaan-3 will carry out the mission on its own. According to Annadurai, mission director of Chandrayaan-1 and Chandrayaan-2, the Pragyan rover will be the first to land and build the Ashoka Pillar on the lunar surface. It will move on the moon's surface at a speed of one centimeter per second and collect information. The special thing is that every movement Pragyan will make on the moon will leave an impression of India and ISRO everywhere.
