The Indian Space Research Organization's Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft landed on the moon's South Pole on Wednesday, making India the first nation to accomplish so. As India becomes the fourth country after the United States, China, and Russia to safely land a spacecraft on the moon, the mission is considered a crucial step for further lunar exploration and strengthening India's position as a space power. 
One name stands out in the field of space exploration as India celebrates Chandrayaan-3's successful lunar landing: Ritu Karidhal.
Karidhal, also referred to as the "Rocket Woman," served as the deputy operations director for India's Mangalyaan Mars orbital project.
