The results suggest higher latitudes on the moon with slopes that face its poles share conditions similar to those at Chandrayaan-3's landing site. These regions typically receive less intense solar ...

Calculations show that slopes facing away from sun and towards the pole with a slope angle greater than 14 degrees will be cold enough for water-ice to accumulate in crevices or craters close to surfa ...

Ice could be present at more locations right beneath the Moon's surface at the poles than previously thought, a study of data collected by the Chandrayaan-3 mission has suggested. Changes in surface ...

The Chandrayaan-3 mission, launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) from Bengaluru, achieved a soft landing near the Moon's south pole on August 23, 2023. The landing site was ...

During Chandrayaan-3’s landing near 70° South latitude ... Durga Prasad, these high-latitude areas offer promising sites for scouting water-ice, prospecting resources, and even habitation.

It aims to return up to 3 kg (6.6 lb) of lunar regolith from near Shiv Shakti point, the landing site of Chandrayaan-3, located at the lunar south pole. Chandrayaan-5, referred to as the Lunar ...

A recent study based on Chandrayaan-3 data suggests ice deposits may be more widespread beneath the Moon’s polar surface than previously thought. Scientists believe local temperature changes ...

This celebration honours the Chandrayaan-3 mission's successful landing on the Moon on August 23, 2023, a historic achievement that positioned India as the fourth country globally to land on the ...

New findings from the Chandrayaan-3 mission indicate potential ice deposits just beneath the Moon's polar surface in more areas than previously thought. Researchers highlight the impact of ...

At the moon’s poles, even small variations in topography can make for significant differences in surface temperature—as demonstrated neatly by Chandrayaan-3’s landing site measurements.

The results suggest higher latitudes on the moon with slopes that face its poles share conditions similar to those at Chandrayaan-3's landing site. These regions typically receive less intense ...
