Chandrayaan-3 has shared its first-ever images of the Moon and they look stunning! As the spacecraft of the ambitious Chandrayaan-3 mission entered the lunar orbit on Saturday, it caught sight of the Moon during its maneuver, the video clip of which was shared by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Sunday on X (formerly Twitter).<\/p>\n
