Chandrayaan-3 changed its orbit for the fourth time on Wednesday (August 16). ISRO told that the vehicle has now come in a nearly circular orbit of 153 Km X 163 Km of the moon. ISRO scientists fired Chandrayaan's thruster for some time at around 8:30 am on Wednesday. This information has been given by the Indian Space Agency ISRO.
Earlier Chandrayaan-3 was located in an orbit of 150 Km x 177 Km. With this, the vehicle is slowly moving toward the surface of the Moon. For ISRO, August 17 is an important day for Chandrayaan. On this day ISRO will separate the propulsion module of Chandrayaan-3 from the lander and on August 23, the vehicle will land.
Moon will be searched for 14 days
The lander and rover will land on the Moon's South Pole and conduct experiments and research there for 14 days. ISRO said in a tweet on X, "Now is the time to prepare as the Propulsion Module and Lander Module are getting ready for their separate journeys."
Chandrayaan had sent the picture of the earth
On August 10, ISRO informed that Chandrayaan's Lander Imager (LI) camera has sent a photo of the Earth and the Moon. The photo was taken by the Lander Horizontal Velocity (LHVC) camera a day after Chandrayaan-3 reached the Moon's third orbit. Let us tell you that the Chandrayaan-3 mission was launched on 14 July. Since then, Chandrayaan-3 has been crossing milestones one after the other.
