00:00 India's third lunar mission Chandrayaan-3 successfully entered the moon's orbit, marking
00:12 a significant milestone as India aims for a lunar landing in the coming days.
00:17 Chandrayaan-3 has shared its first ever images of the moon, and they look stunning.
00:23 As the spacecraft of the ambitious Chandrayaan-3 mission entered the lunar orbit on Saturday,
00:29 it caught sight of the moon during its manoeuvre, the video clip of which was shared by the
00:33 Indian Space Research Organisation on Sunday.
00:37 The moon, as viewed by Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft during lunar orbit insertion on August 5,
00:43 2023, tweeted the mission's official Twitter handle.
00:46 While there are only less than 20 days left before the soft landing on the lunar surface,
00:51 the clip gave a glimpse of the intricate details of the moon's craters as the craft was approaching
00:56 towards it.
00:57 Chandrayaan-3 is India's third unmanned moon mission and has successfully entered lunar
01:02 orbit on Saturday after covering two-thirds of the total distance so far.
01:06 And feeling lunar gravity was the Chandrayaan-3's message to ISRO after it achieved the major
01:12 milestone that hauled it closer to the moon.
01:15 The craft made over five moves in an attempt to lift it against the Earth's gravity over
01:20 three weeks since the launch on July 14.
01:24 After the Sunday manoeuvre of Chandrayaan-3, there will be three more operations till August
01:28 17, following which the landing module Vikram carrying the rover Pragyan inside it will
01:33 break away from the propulsion module.
01:36 After this, deorbiting manoeuvres will be carried on the lander before the final powered
01:41 descent on the moon.
01:43 The moon mission has been smooth so far and the ISRO expects the Vikram lander to make
01:47 a soft landing on the lunar surface later this month on August 23.
01:51 The injection into the lunar orbit marked a major milestone in the space agency's ambitious
01:57 600-crore Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission.
02:00 As the spacecraft begins its journey around the moon, the world eagerly awaits the outcomes
02:05 of this ambitious mission.
