Earlier this week, ISRO released the first image of the Moon captured by the spacecraft, which moved into a lower orbit around the Moon on Wednesday. The space agency has said the spacecraft has been functioning normally.
Chandrayaan-2 will take up the crucial process of attempting a soft landing of its lander ‘Vikram’ in the early hours of September 7.
“It is expected to make a soft landing (on the surface of the moon) at around 1.40 am and completed by 1.55 am. At the global level, this is an important mission. It is being keenly watched by everyone,” space agency chief K Sivan had said earlier. Chandrayaan-2 is India’s first attempt to land a spacecraft on the Moon.
