A Billion Prayers For Chandrayaan-3 As India Seeks Historic Moon Landing
People across India are holding havans and dua for the safe landing of the Vikram lander of Chandrayaan-3 on Moon. The Vikram lander is set to commence the landing process at 5:45 pm and land at 6:04 pm. After the failed Chandrayaan-2 mission in 2019, this is the second attempt of India to land on Moon. Educational institutions are holding special screenings of the landing for students as the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is set to stream it live from 5:20 pm onwards. When Vikram lands on Moon, India would become just the fourth country in the world to land on Moon and the first country to land on Moon's South Pole.
