Chandrayaan 3 is set to launch at 5:05 a.m. ET on Friday (July 14).
An LVM3 rocket carrying India's Chandrayaan 3 moon mission rolls out to the launch pad ahead of its planned July 14, 2023 liftoff.
Chandrayaan 3 consists of a lander and a rover, each of which carries a handful of scientific instruments. If all goes according to plan, the duo will touch down softly near the moon's south pole in late August, then study their environs for about one lunar day . With a successful touchdown, India would join a very exclusive club: To date, only the United States, the Soviet Union and China have successfully landed a spacecraft on the moon.
