The soft landing is scheduled for August 23, 2023 and will make India the fourth country ever to accomplish this feat after the US, Russia and China.

The Isro has announced that Chandrayaan-3's propulsion module, designed initially to have a lifespan of three to six months, will be able to continue

The mission objectives of Chandrayaan-3 are to demonstrate a safe and soft landing on the lunar surface, to demonstrate rover roving on the Moon, and to conduct in-situ scientific experiments.

Ahead of Isros attempt to softly land Vikram (the lander) on August 23, theres some good news about Chandrayaan-3: The propulsion module, which was initially expected to last for three-six months, still has more than 150 kg of fuel left. This suggests it could remain operational for several years to come.
