ISRO Shares Thrilling Update on Chandrayaan-3 Mission: Rover Pragyan's Unexpected Encounter on August 27, 2023. A surprise awaited the Pragyan rover as it came across a 4-meter wide crater right in its path, situated merely 3 meters ahead.

Prioritizing the rover's safety, ISRO swiftly directed it to retrace its steps and return to its previous route. Consequently, the rover is now charting a different course, avoiding the encountered crater. ISRO communicated this development through the social media platform X.

Recall that on August 23, 2023, India's lander executed a flawless landing on the lunar surface, a feat akin to following a textbook example. Thus, despite a few hitches, the Chandrayaan-3 mission continues to make remarkable strides!
