Chandrayaan-3: No signal received from Vikram lander, Pragyan rover, says ISRO

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is attempting to establish communication with Chandrayaan-3's Vikram lander and Pragyan rover but no signal has been received so far.

ISRO posted on X: "Efforts have been made to establish communication with the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover to ascertain their wake-up condition."

"As of now, no signals have been received from them," the statement said.

"Efforts to establish contact will continue," the space organization said.

Chandrayaan-3 landed near the lunar south pole on August 23.

It is now the fourth nation to successfully make a lunar landing after the USA, Russia and China.

During this period, Pragyan explored the land site, tracking images back to Earth, while Vikram performed a set of scientific experiments including measuring the temperature of the top layer of the lunar regolith.

The Pragyan rover was put to sleep on September 2 when all the instruments were turned off.
