Chandrayaan 2 lander spotted |
A day after Indian Space research organisation lost communication with the lander Vikram of their Chandrayaan-2`s lunar mission, Isro chairman K Sivan confirmed that the cameras on board Chandrayaan-2`s orbiter had "clicked the image of the lander" but communication is still elusive. Praising India for its difficult landing mission on the Moon`s south pole, US space agency National Aeronautics and Space Administration tweeted, "Space is hard. We commend ISRO`s attempt to land their Chandrayaan 2 mission on the Moon`s South Pole. You have inspired us with your journey and look forward to future opportunities to explore our solar system together. Nasa has said that a Nasa payload on board the lander "could cast light on what happened just before the communication link with the lander was lost" during the final descent.
