Bengaluru: Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) shared the first Moon’s image captured by “Chandrayaan-2 Vikram Lander”.

The picture has been captured at a height of about 2650 km from Lunar surface on August 21, 2019. In the photo, ISRO highlighted two significant lunar landmarks — the Apollo crater and the Mare Orientale basin.

ISRO shared the picture on Twitter and tweeted, ” Take a look at the first Moon image captured by #Chandrayaan2 #VikramLander taken at a height of about 2650 km from Lunar surface on August 21, 2019. Mare Orientale basin and Apollo craters are identified in the picture. #ISRO”

Chandrayaan-2 reached the Moon on August 20, when it entered the lunar orbit. On August 21, Chandrayaan-2 performed a manoeuvre to lower its orbit around the Moon.

The Chandrayaan-2 mission’s D-Day is September 2, when the lander Vikram will separate from the spacecraft and get into a lunar orbit of its own.

On September 7 morning, Vikram will begin a 15-minute powered descent at the end of which it will land near the south pole of the Moon. This would make India the only country in the world to perform a “soft landing” near the lunar south pole.
