The fourth orbit-raising manoeuvre of India's Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission was successfully performed on July 20, 2023, and the mission is now progressing steadily. The spacecraft is presently in a 71351 km by 233 km orbit around the planet, according to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).The Chandrayaan-3 project, which will be launched on July 14, 2023, from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, aims to show off India's prowess in soft-landing and running a robotic rover on the lunar surface.
On Thursday, the Chandrayaan-3 mission's fourth orbit-raising manoeuvre (earth-bound perigee firing) was successfully carried out by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).
According to the space agency, Chandrayaan-3 will get one step closer to the Moon as India observes International Moon Day in 2023. Earth-bound perigee firing, the fourth orbit-raising exercise, is successfully carried out from ISTRAC/ISRO, Bengaluru.
According to ISRO, Chandrayaan-3 has successfully reached its planned orbit of 71351 km x 233 km.
This indicates that Chandrayaan-3 is now in an orbit, which is 233 kilometres from Earth at its closest and 71,351 kilometres away at its farthest.

The Launch Vehicle Mark-3 (LVM-3) successfully launched Chandrayaan-3 The mission's primary goal is to demonstrate a secure landing on lunar terrain. After separating from the propulsion module a few days after entering lunar orbit, the lander is scheduled to soft land on the moon's South Pole at 5:47 PM on August 23.
From a height of around 100 km above the moon's surface, the lander will descend to the lunar surface.
Soft landing is a challenging problem since it requires a sequence of difficult actions that include both harsh and precise braking. Before landing, imaging of the landing site area will be performed to identify safe and hazard-free zones.
The six-wheeled rover will move out and undertake tests after the soft landing.
A new clear glass room will be used to count donations at the Kedarnath Temple.
A transparent glass chamber has been built at the Kedarnath Temple where pilgrims' gifts and priceless offerings will be counted.
Ajendra Ajay, chairman of the Badrinath-Kedarnath Temple Committee (BKTC), said on Tuesday that it was done to ensure complete financial transparency in temple operations.
He claims that on Monday, during a puja that was also attended by Rajkumar Tiwari, president of the Kedar Sabha, and BKTC executive officer Ramesh Chandra Tiwari, the glass cage known as the "transparent counting room" officially began operating
CCTV cameras have also been installed in the glass chamber to keep an eye on all financial activity, including expensive gifts and donations made by worshippers at the temple, he continued
The glass enclosure was constructed by the
