If factors unfavourable, we will postpone landing to August 27: Senior Isro scientist on Chandrayaan-3

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is considering an alternative landing date of August 27 for the Chandrayaan-3 mission if conditions are not favourable on August 23. ISRO has taken precautions and learned from the mistakes of the Chandrayaan-2 mission, strengthening the legs of the Vikram lander and conducting rigorous testing. ISRO is prioritizing a smooth landing and will delay if necessary, even though it may result in a loss of four Earth days for rover and lander operations.
