Chandrayaan-3: India's Hopes Fade as Moon Lander Remains Silent

The chances of India's Moon lander, Vikram, reawakening after a lunar night are diminishing, according to space scientists. The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) has been attempting to contact the lander and rover, Pragyaan, since the start of the new lunar day, but has not received any signals. Former Isro chief AS Kiran Kumar stated that the extreme cold temperatures on the Moon may have damaged the components of the lander and rover. Efforts to establish communication are ongoing, but the outcome remains uncertain. India made history with the Chandrayaan-3 mission, becoming the fourth country to achieve a soft landing on the Moon.
