When will Vikram Pragyan wake up from sleep ISRO Chief said a big thing

Indian Space Agency ISRO has said something big regarding Chandrayaan-3 mission. ISRO Chairman S. Somnath said on Thursday that Chandrayaan-3's rover 'Pragyan' is in hibernation on its surface, but the possibility of its reactivation cannot be ruled out. He said that the space agency is aware that the rover and lander 'Vikram' have gone into hibernation on the surface of the moon. According to PTI report, S. Somnath said that the objective of 'Chandrayaan-3' mission was 'soft landing'. After that, experiments were conducted for 14 days and necessary data was collected.

Addressing a news conclave, S. Somnath said that now it is sleeping peacefully there…let it sleep well…let us not disturb it…when it wants to get up on its own, it will get up…this is what I want to say about it right now Am.''

When asked if ISRO is still hopeful that the rover will be reactivated, he said, “There is reason to be hopeful.” Somnath, giving reasons for 'hope', said that the mission will include a lander and A rover was involved. He told that the lander is a huge structure, so it could not be tested completely.

But when the rover was tested at zero to minus 200 degrees Celsius, it was found to be working at even lower temperatures. ISRO chief clarified that the objective of 'Chandrayaan-3' mission has been accomplished. He said ISRO is trying to trace the scientific data collected through the mission. After landing on the Moon on August 23, the lander and rover conducted experiments there for several days. Thanks to Chandrayaan-3, India has joined those countries of the world which have been able to make a soft landing on the Moon.
