India's Chandrayaan-3 Robotic Moon Lander Mission Launch | ISRO
A GSLV Mk-III launch vehicle (LVM3-M4) successfully launched the Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission, from the Second Launch Pad (SLP) of the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) SHAR, Sriharikota, India, on July 14, 2023, at 09:05 UTC (14:35 local time). Chandrayaan-3, ISRO’s third lunar exploration mission, consists of a propulsion module, a lander and a rover.
After reaching the moon, Chandrayaan-3 is planned to land about 70.9 degrees south of the lunar equator. Chandrayaan-3 is India's effort to become the fourth country, after the United States, Russia and China, to successfully soft-land on the Moon.
The Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft would also be the first to land at the lunar south pole, an area of special interest for space agencies and private space companies because of the presence of water ice that could support future surface activities.
