The historic Chandrayaan-3 mission was successfully launched on July 14 from Andhra Pradesh’s Sriharikota using a Launch Vehicle Mark-3 (LVM3) missile, marking yet another advancement in ISRO’s space pursuits. It had a lander module and a propulsion module.

The lander module was set up with a lander named Vikram and a rover named Pragyan. The rover payload will analyse the chemical composition of the lunar surface after the soft landing. There is space for experiments on the payloads of the lander and rover.
