The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) revealed through social media on Wednesday that the Chandrayaan 3 spacecraft has successfully undergone its fifth and final lunar orbit manoeuvre, bringing it closer to landing on the Moon's surface.The lander module, including the Vikram lander and the Pragyan rover, will separate from the propulsion module on Thursday, after which it will begin its own journey to the Moon.After passing through a series of complex manoeuvres consisting of rough and fine braking, the lander will descend for a soft landing on the Moon's surface from a height of about 100 km.Post the soft landing, the six-wheeled rover will roll out and carry out experiments on the lunar surface for 14 days.On 14 July, the ISRO successfully launched the Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission, which will deploy a cutting-edge rover, an indigenously-developed lander named the Vikram, and a propulsion module, and carry out groundbreaking experiments on the Moon's surface.If successful, the landing would make India the fourth country to achieve this feat, following the United States, Russia, and China.

Chandrayaan-3 Moves Closer to the Moon, Vikram Lander to Separate on Thursday
17:18 16.08.2023 (Updated: 17:35 16.08.2023) India's third lunar mission, the Chandrayaan-3, is expected to make a soft landing on the Moon on 23 August at 5.47 p.m. (IST).
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) revealed through social media on Wednesday that the Chandrayaan 3 spacecraft has successfully undergone its fifth and final lunar orbit manoeuvre, bringing it closer to landing on the Moon's surface.
The
lander module, including the Vikram lander and the Pragyan rover, will separate from the propulsion module on Thursday, after which it will begin its own
journey to the Moon.
After passing through a series of complex manoeuvres consisting of rough and fine braking, the lander will descend for a soft landing on the Moon's surface from a height of about 100 km.
Post the soft landing, the six-wheeled rover will roll out and
carry out experiments on the lunar surface for 14 days.
On 14 July, the ISRO successfully launched the Chandrayaan-3
lunar mission, which will deploy a cutting-edge rover, an indigenously-developed lander named the Vikram, and a propulsion module, and carry out groundbreaking experiments on the Moon's surface.
If successful, the landing would make India the fourth country to achieve this feat, following the United States, Russia, and China.
