The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has shared the first selfies from the moon's surface of India's Chandrayaan-3 lander Vikram and rover Pragyan. These historic images show the realization of a moment over a billion Indians have eagerly awaited. The photos and video show Vikram taking images of its own ramp as Pragyan slowly rolled down onto the lunar surface. ISRO shared the video on Twitter, writing "here is how the Chandrayaan-3 Rover ramped down from the Lander to the Lunar surface." The successful landing and surface operations mark a monumental achievement for India's space programme.
