Chandrayaan-3 Live Updates: ISRO's Livestream Anticipates Lander Vikram's Moon Touchdown in Under 48 Hours

As Chandrayaan-3, India's lunar mission, enters a crucial phase, ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) is gearing up to provide live updates of the soft landing attempt.

The lander, Vikram, is set to make contact with the lunar surface in less than 48 hours, marking a significant milestone in India's space exploration efforts.

ISRO's livestream coverage is expected to capture the tension and excitement surrounding Vikram's landing, offering real-time insights into the mission's progress. This event is a critical step forward after the previous Chandrayaan missions, aiming to demonstrate India's prowess in lunar exploration and technology.

The anticipation builds as ISRO engineers and scientists prepare for this pivotal moment, keeping space enthusiasts and the general public engaged and informed about the mission's latest developments.

With the countdown ticking, India stands on the brink of an extraordinary achievement – executing a soft landing on the Moon's south pole. If successful, this feat will make India the first country to accomplish this challenging endeavor and the fourth nation to ever touch down on the lunar surface.

The anticipation is palpable as the nation eagerly awaits this historic event, but let's not forget the dedicated scientists who have propelled this mission forward:

ISRO Chairman S Somnath: Taking the helm of ISRO in January 2022, he transitioned from his role as Director of VSCC & Liquid Propulsion Centre. Under his guidance, upcoming ambitious missions like Aditya-L1 (Sun exploration) and Gaganyaan (India's maiden manned mission) are in the pipeline.

Chandrayaan-3 Project Director P Veeramuthuvel: Assumed leadership of Chandrayaan-3 in 2019 and played a pivotal role in Chandrayaan-2. A distinguished alumnus of IIT Madras, his expertise fuels India's lunar aspirations.

Director of VSSC S Unnikrisnan Nair: Overseeing crucial functions of the Chandrayaan-3 mission, his team at Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre Thiruvananthapuram developed the Vehicle Mark III rocket.

Director of U R Rao Satellite Centre: Responsible for crafting ISRO's satellites, he took the reins in June 2021. This visionary's leadership will guide India's technological advancements.

As the anticipation mounts, ISRO is prepared to share this historic moment with the world through a live stream of the challenging soft landing, set to commence on Wednesday at 5:20 pm.

The Chandrayaan-3 mission has inched remarkably close to the lunar surface, a mere 25 km away as of the most recent update on Sunday.

With the nation's hopes riding high, India's third lunar mission showcases the nation's commitment to pushing the boundaries of space exploration.
