India's Chandrayaan-3 Lands Successfully on The Moon's South Pole | ISRO

ISRO’s Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission performed a successful soft landing in the South Pole region of the Moon, on August 23, 2023, at 12:34 UTC (18:04 IST). Chandrayaan-3, ISRO’s third lunar exploration mission, consists of a propulsion module, a lander and a rover. 

The Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft is 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.

India has become the fourth country, after the United States, Russia and China, to successfully soft-land on the Moon.
