The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) has postponed the plans to revive the lander Vikram and rover Pragyan to tomorrow i.e, Saturday.
Nilesh Desai, Director of Space Applications Centre said that "Earlier we planned to reactivate the (Pragyan) rover and (Vikram) lander on the evening of 22nd September, but due to some reasons we will now do it tomorrow on September 23."
The rover and lander were put into sleep mode earlier this month after successfully conducting experiments on the lunar surface. The rover was put into sleep mode on September 2, followed by the lander on September 4.
During their operational phase, the Vikram Lander and Pragyan rover executed numerous lunar experiments. The Pragyan rover covered a distance of over 100 meters on the lunar surface, confirming the presence of Sulphur (S) in the lunar surface near the south pole. The Vikram lander also conducted groundbreaking measurements of the near-surface lunar plasma environment over the south polar region.
Hopefully tomorrow India and the world will witness a successful re-awakening of Vikram Lander and Pragyan Rover, and Chandrayaan-3 2.0 will be a success and we'll have many more new information.
