Congrats to India! Glad to see more space programs succeed.

ISROʼs last lunar exploration mission was in 2019 and called Chandrayaan-2. The lunar orbiter succeeded. The lunar lander, named Vikram, failed, crashing onto the lunar surface. Vikram contained a lunar rover named Pragyan.

Here is Scott Manleyʼs review of the Vikram failure.

Here is a New York Times gift article link about today's (2023-07-14) launch.

Back in Reddit, you couldn't have a single post about India's space works without the mods locking the threads. I had hoped those fuckers would stay there.
