Days after the historic Chandrayaan-3 landing, Rover ‘Pragyan’ performed a stunning maneouver. Rover ‘Pragyan’ was seen rotating in search of a safe route on the surface of the moon. The rotation was captured by a high-resolution Imager Camera of Lander Vikram. Taking to X, ISRO cited it as “a child is playfully frolicking in the yards of Chandamama”. Earlier, ISRO shared the first observation from the ChaSTE payload onboard Vikram Lander. ChaSTE measured the temp profile of lunar topsoil around the pole, to understand thermal behaviour of Moon’s surface. In the history of space science, it was the first time that temp profiling is being done around south pole of moon.
