On Friday, the Lander Module, which consists of the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover, will be lowered to an orbit that brings it closer to the Moon’s surface
aboard Friday, ISRO made public a collection of images of the Moon taken by cameras mounted aboard the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft’s Lander Module. The images, which were taken on Thursday after the spacecraft’s Lander Module and Propulsion Module separated, showed the craters on the Moon’s surface that were identified on images supplied by ISRO as “Fabry,” “Giordano Bruno,” and “Harkhebi J.”
The nation’s space agency uploaded photographs from the Lander Position Detection Camera (LPDC) on August 15 and images from the Lander Imager (LI) Camera-1 on August 17 — shortly after the Lander Module and Propulsion Module separated.
In preparation for the soft landing on the Lunar south pole on August 23, the Lander Module, which consists of the lander (Vikram) and the rover (Pragyan), will be lowered into an orbit on Friday.
The Lander Module of Chandrayaan-3 has successfully undertaken a deboosting (slowing down) procedure that has brought it closer to the Moon, according to ISRO’s announcement on Friday. Its condition is also normal.

On August 20, the second deboosting operation will be performed on the Lander Module, which includes the lander (Vikram) and the rover (Pragyan), to lower it to an orbit that brings it considerably closer to the Moon’s surface.
The health of the Lander Module (LM) is normal. Deboosting was successfully completed on LM, resulting in a 113 km by 157 km orbit. The second deboosting operation is planned to take place on August 20, 2023, about 02:00 IST, according to a post by ISRO on X.
On Thursday, 35 days after the satellite’s launch on July 14, the Lander Module of Chandrayaan-3 successfully split from the Propulsion Module.
