ISRO is preparing to initiate a "sleep mode" operation for the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover as the lunar night is approaching

In one of the images, ISRO has displayed two key payloads that are currently conducting in-situ experimentation on the moon’s south pole.

The various metals/non-metals found by ISRO include Aluminum (Al), Calcium (Ca), Iron (Fe), Chromium (Cr), Titanium (Ti), Manganese (Mn), Silicon (Si), and Oxygen (O). The space agency added that the process to find traces of Hydrogen (H) is still underway.

Chandrayaan-3 rover was rerouted by ISRO after it encountered a massive crater spanning around 4 meters in diameter on lunar surface.

Hindu Mahasabha President Swami Chakrapani Maharaj demanded that the Moon should be declared a "Hindu Rashtra" before other ideologies, religions, or countries lay their claim on it

The lander Vikram gently placed the rover Pragyan onto the lunar South Pole using a two-segment foldable ramp and a supporting wire.

The many reasons why countries are running for lunar south pole landing include chances of presence of water, better astronomical site to understand radio waves and potential presence of volatiles among others.

Rajasthan’s Sports and Youth Affairs Minister Ashok Chandna believed that the Chandrayaan-3 is a manned mission and he saluted the 'passengers'

Roscosmos stated that Luna-25 moved into an unpredictable orbit and ceased to exist as a result of a collision with the surface of the Moon.
