ISRO has managed to return the propulsion module of Chandrayaan-3 to the Earth's orbit.
Earlier, Indian Space Research Organization's Vikram Lander also reached the moon riding this same propulsion module. Lander Vikram's propulsion module orbited the moon for about three and a half months after landing on the moon.
Inside the Vikram lander was the rover Pragyan. Rover Pragyan is an instrument that collects multiple data from the lunar surface for Chandrayaan-3. Scientists have brought the propulsion module of Chandrayaan-3 back close to Earth after India's successful lunar mission.
According to a BBC report, the module has reached the earth's orbit after several complex steps. Through this, the door of new research on the moon was opened. From then on, ISRO is expected to be able to easily work on any sample of the moon.
ISRO started working to bring the propulsion module of Chandrayaan-3 back into Earth's orbit from October this year. At that time ISRO took several precautionary measures. This included planning the module's trajectory and taking special precautions to avoid collision with the Moon or Earth's Geo Belt.
Then the propulsion module of Chandrayaan-3 was able to leave the lunar orbit on November 10. Now it is orbiting the earth.
Earlier, Chandrayaan-3 was launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Center in Sri Harikota, Andhra Pradesh on July 14 towards the moon. After that, India became the first country in the world to land Chandrayaan-3's Vikram lander on the South Pole of the Moon on August 23.
After that Vikram Lander's rover Pragyan started conducting various experiments from the lunar surface. The rover Pragyan's camera also captured images of the lander Vikram.
