On voit Vikram comme un point sombre alors qu'un halo de poussières décollées du sol de la #Lune apparaît plus clair sur le pourtour.

NASA has unveiled a photograph capturing India's lunar lander, Vikram, on the Moon's surface. The image displays Vikram as a small speck at the image's center, casting a dark shadow against the bright surroundings. Chandrayaan-3's successful landing occurred near the lunar south pole on August 23. NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter snapped the photograph four days later. India joined an exclusive group of nations, including the US, the former Soviet Union, and China, to achieve a soft lunar landing. The lander and rover exceeded their mission objectives during their 10-day lunar exploration. They've now entered a sleep mode until September 22.
