Chandrayaan-3: India's Third Moon Mission India's third lunar mission, Chandrayaan-3, is set to land on the Moon's south pole on Wednesday, August 24, 2023. The mission will be a critical test of India's ability to soft-land on the Moon, and it will also be the first time that any country has attempted to land a spacecraft on the lunar south pole. The Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft consists of a lander and a rover. The lander will touch down on the Moon's surface, while the rover will deploy from the lander and explore the surrounding area. The lander and rover are both equipped with a variety of scientific instruments, including cameras, spectrometers, and radars. The main goal of Chandrayaan-3 is to study the lunar south pole, which is thought to be a region rich in water ice. Water ice is a valuable resource for future human exploration of the Moon, as it could be used to support life and generate fuel. Chandrayaan-3 is also expected to make important contributions to
