After passing through a series of complex manoeuvres, the lander will make a soft touchdown on the lunar surface from an elevation of about 100 km. Post-landing, the six-wheeled rover will roll out to conduct experiments on the Moon's surface for 14 days. If successful, the landing would make India the fourth country to achieve this feat, following the United States, Russia, and China.

Chandrayaan-3 Unveils Fresh Images of Moon Ahead of Touchdown
15:27 21.08.2023 (Updated: 15:28 21.08.2023) India's much-anticipated third lunar mission - Chandrayaan-3 - is expected to land on the Moon's South Pole on August 23 at around 6:04 pm (Indian time).
In the run-up to Chandrayaan 3's landing, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Monday released pictures of the Vikram lander determining the landing site on the Moon.
ISRO shared the photos on Twitter captured by the Lander Hazard Detection and Avoidance Camera built into the spacecraft.
On July 14, the ISRO successfully launched the
Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission, which will deploy a cutting-edge rover, an indigenously-developed lander called the Vikram, and a propulsion module, that will carry out groundbreaking
experiments on the Moon's surface.
After passing through a series of
complex manoeuvres, the lander will make a soft touchdown on the lunar surface from an elevation of about 100 km.
Post-landing, the six-wheeled rover will roll out to conduct experiments on the Moon's surface for 14 days.
If successful, the landing would make India the fourth country to achieve this feat, following the United States, Russia, and China.
