Chandrayaan-3 Lands on moon

India has become the first nation in the world to land on the South Pole of the Moon, as the country’s Chandrayaan-3 mission successfully touched down on the lunar surface. With this, India has also become the fourth nation worldwide to demonstrate a soft landing on the Moon. The South Pole of the Moon has the toughest terrains and incredibly low temperatures. However, it’s one of the most interesting places on the Moon. There is strong evidence that water ice is present in the permanently shadowed craters of the lunar south pole. This could be a valuable resource for future human exploration of the Moon. Additionally, the lunar south pole is also an excellent place for radio astronomy. The Vikram lander will now measure the mineral composition of the surface of the Moon. The successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 is a major milestone in the history of lunar exploration.
