Isro releases much-awaited pictures of Chandrayaan-3 lander Vikram

The photos, taken by the rover Pragyan at 7.35am Wednesday, show the ramp that allowed the rover to roll out, aside from two payloads descending on to the lunar surface for in-situ experiments. The two payloads seen descending from Vikram are Instrument for Lunar Seismic Activity (ILSA) and Chandra’s Surface Thermo Physical Experiment (ChaSTE). These navigation cameras on Pragyan, the ones that guide the rover, were developed in a quiet lab called LEOS in Bengaluru.
