If things go as planned, the Chandrayaan-3 lander Vikram will touch down on the lunar surface at 5.47 PM on August 23, after a 40-day journey, according to two top ISRO scientists.
The journey from Earth to the moon for the spacecraft is estimated to take about a month and the landing is expected on August 23. Upon landing, it will operate for one lunar day, which is approximately 14 Earth days.
The success of Chandrayaan 3 would see India enter an elite club of nations achieving such a feat, the others being the United States, China and the former Soviet Union.
