Results from India’s Chandrayaan 3 thermal probe experiment were published in Nature recently. Here’s a rundown of how the findings lend Moon mission planners broader, reduced risk regions for water ice prospecting instead of being limited to shaky peak polar areas: jatan.space/moon-monday-... 👀 🧊 🌘

Exactly one year ago SLIM made its pin-pointing landing at an area close to Shioli crater. I wrote around that time how I used ISRO’s Chandrayaan-2 OHRC to locate SLIM lander. Here's the blog post about it and the landing algo explained.

SpaDeX docking to be shown live. Wow.
PS4 was to reach the desired orbit in an hour since SpaDeX separation.
Not the only SpaDeX. Many more missions to demonstrate bigger and more complicated docking systems.

The PSLV successfully placed the European Space Agency (ESA)'s PROBA-3 mission into a highly elliptical orbit - 600 km by 60,530 km - a first for the PSLV.
PSLV-C59 completed the mission successfully after a lift-off from SHAR at 1604 hrs IST.
