ISRO is resolutely working to restore communication with the Chandrayaan-3 mission’s Vikram lander and Pragyan rover. Despite no signal reception, ISRO’s determination persists. The mission aims to prolong its objectives and gather more data. The equipment’s charged batteries, left before sleep mode, hold the key to potential success.
Revival efforts commenced when the Sun’s elevation could power the dormant instruments after 14 days of lunar night. Official confirmation depends on establishing a stable connection between ISRO’s ground stations and the lander-rover duo.
In the best-case scenario, the rover will resume lunar exploration, and the lander will recommence data collection using charged batteries and solar panels.
Chandrayaan-3’s historic landing near the lunar south pole set the stage. These tenacious revival attempts could extend the mission’s impact beyond its initial goals, potentially yielding significant scientific discoveries.
