Chandrayaan-3 is the third lunar probe mission of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) The goal is to put a vehicle and a rover on the surface of the moon and work for scientific purposes Here are some details about Chandrayaan-3:

• Features: Chandrayaan-3 will have a lander and rover similar to Chandrayaan-2, but will not have an orbiter. Its propulsion module will behave like a communications satellite and carry ground coordinates to the rover until the spacecraft is within 100km of the moon.
• Launch and landing: Chandrayaan-3 was launched on July 14, 2023, at 09:05:17 UT (14:35 Indian Standard Time) on GSLV Mark 3 (LVM 3) vehicle by Satish Dhawan The spacecraft was successfully placed into lunar orbit on August 21, 2023, reaching an orbit of 164 km x 18074 km. A soft landing of the lander and rover on the moon is scheduled for August 23, 2023
• Mission: One of Chandrayaan-3’s missions is to dislodge water ice, which scientists believe could support human habitation on the moon in the future. This project also aims to show the fatigue and end of landing and moving safely on the surface of the moon.

What is the expected launch date for Chandrayaan-3?

Chandrayaan-3 was launched on July 14, 2023, from the Satish Dhawan Space Center in Sriharikota, India The vehicle and rover are expected to land near the lunar surface on August 23, 2023. The goal is to demonstrate the end-to-end ability to safely enter the lunar surface and search for water ice on the moon. The spacecraft will have a vehicle and a rover similar to Chandrayaan-2, but without an orbiter, Its propulsion module will behave like a communications satellite and carry ground coordinates to the rover until the spacecraft is within 100km of the moon.

As of August 21, 2023, Chandrayaan-3 has completed its final lunar orbit and is expected to land on the Moon on August 23, 2023. This mission follows on from Chandrayaan-2 and aims to demonstrate the end-to-end capability to reach and safely travel to the surface of the moon, as well as search for water ice on the moon. Chandrayaan-3 will have a lander and rover similar to Chandrayaan-2, but no orbiter. The Chandrayaan-3 lander will have only four throttle motors, unlike the five motors of Chandrayaan-2’s Vikram lander.
