India’s Chandrayaan-3 successfully landed on the moon’s south pole. This achievement makes India the fourth country, after the US, China, and the former Soviet Union, to softly land on the moon. Before the historic lunar landing, celebrations and prayers took place across the country. The Chandrayaan-3 mission was launched from Sriharikota on July 14.

The Vikram lander started descending toward the moon’s surface at a speed of 1.68 km per second. It then slowed down and began a controlled vertical descent to land on the moon’s surface.
In a moment that encapsulated both the scientific prowess and the cultural diversity of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), a group of accomplished female scientists, elegantly draped in traditional sarees, gathered to celebrate a monumental achievement.
