Chennai: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Monday announced that the rover, deployed by the Lander on board the third Lunar Mission Chandrayaan-3 in the South Polar Region, came across a crater, forcing it to retrace the path and now safely heading on a new path.

ISRO said in its post on X, "On August 27, 2023, the Rover came across a 4-meter diameter crater positioned 3 meters ahead of its location."

"The Rover was commanded to retrace the path. It's now safely heading on a new path," ISRO posted on X.
