Chandrayaan 3 Landing Date and Time: After the Lander Module (LM) successfully completed its second and final de-boosting operation on Sunday, India’s Chandrayaan-3 drew nearer to the Moon. The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said that the lander has now attained an orbit with a distance from the Moon of 134 km at its furthest point and 25 km at its closest point. And with this, India would soon become the fourth nation in the world to do a soft landing on the moon after the US, Russia, and China.

This article will help you know all the deets about the Chandrayaan 3 Moon Landing Date, Time and more. But before heading to all that you read, refresh your memory about the Chandrayaan 3 Mission.

About Chandrayaan 3

Chandrayaan-3 is a follow-up mission to Chandrayaan-2 that aims to show off end-to-end capability for safe landing and wandering on the lunar surface. It is directed for the lunar south pole, where water ice, or frozen water, may exist. This area is a potential source of oxygen, fuel, and water for upcoming moon missions or a more long-term moon colony.

Official Chandrayaan 3 Moon Landing Date & Time

The Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh, successfully launched India’s third lunar mission on July 14. It consists of an indigenous Lander module (LM), a Propulsion module (PM) and a Rover with the objective of developing and demonstrating new technologies required for Interplanetary missions. A few weeks later, on August 5, the lander will come into contact with the moon. And it is just 1 day away from reaching its final destination.

The momentous landing’s date and timing were revealed by ISRO in a tweet that read, “Chandrayaan-3 is set to land on the Moon on August 23, 2023, around 18:04 Hrs. IST.” So, this means that the lander module will touch down on the Lunar surface on August 23.
