Stunning Images from Chandrayaan-3 Moon Mission

Newly released footage shows India's Chandrayaan-3 rover rolling out of its parent craft to begin exploration of the lunar surface. The Chandrayaan-3 mission touched down on Wednesday, August 23, 2023, and closer to the moon's south pole than any previous moon missions. The landing zone is believed to be situated between the Manzinus C and Simpelius N craters in the southern region. The mission has already transmitted several stunning images, including a series taken from above during its descent. The Indian Space Research Organization hopes to use Chandrayaan-3 to learn more about the moon's atmospheric and mineral composition.
