Chandrayaan-2's Vikram lander lost contact with ground stations minutes before its planned touchdown on the lunar surface.
About:
The Vikram Lander descent was initiated as planned and normal performance was observed up to an altitude of 2.1 km above the lunar surface. Subsequently, the communication from the Lander to the ground stations was lost.
The Orbiter would continue to observe the moon’s surface and its exosphere for a year by encircling the natural satellite.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was with the scientists patted them for their hard work and asked them to move forward.
