Challenging mission but all stages completed accurately: ISRO

"This is a very challenging mission of ISRO. It contained so many stages — firstly, Chandrayaan-3 was put into the Earth's orbit, then it was sent to Moon transfer trajectory, then it reached the Moon's orbit, and now the lander and rover have reached the pre-landing orbit. All these stages have been completed accurately," said RC Kapoor, a former professor at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics.
