ISRO shared an image of the Vikram lander captured by the Pragyan rover’s navigation camera on Wednesday morning. As informed by ISRO on Tuesday, the rover has detected several elements like sulphur, aluminium, iron, silicon, and oxygen near the unexplored lunar south pole region. ISRO confirmed these breakthrough findings by the rover's LIBS instrument, underscoring Chandrayaan-3's immense scientific potential. The six-wheeled solar rover steered to safer terrain earlier this week after spotting a precariously close crater edge. The imaging and discoveries highlight the mission's progress in advancing the lunar surface study and heralding more insights ahead.
