India’s lunar mission Chandrayaan-3 has successfully landed on the moon’s south pole, BBC reports.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated the achievement, stating that “India is now on the Moon.”
This accomplishment places India among a handful of nations to have achieved a lunar landing, including the US, the Soviet Union, and China.
This milestone comes just days after Russia’s Luna-25 spacecraft spun out of control and crashed into the Moon.
