Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) scientists watch the descent of spacecraft Chandrayaan-3 on the moon at ISRO's Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network facility in Bengaluru, India, Wednesday, Aug. 23, 2023. India was counting down to landing a spacecraft near the moon's south pole Wednesday, an unchartered territory that scientists believe could hold important reserves of frozen water and precious elements.

"Un jour historique": la fusée indienne a réussi son alunissage sur le pôle sud de la Lune

Students hold posters as they gather in support of the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft in Mumbai on August 22, 2023. The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) confirmed that the lander module of the Chandrayaan-3, which means "Mooncraft" in Sanskrit, had "successfully separated" from the propulsion module six days ahead of a planned landing slated for August 23. India launched a rocket on July 14 carrying an unmanned spacecraft to land on the Moon, its second attempt to do so as its cut-price space programme seeks to reach new heights.

This photograph taken on August 14, 2023 in Fontainebleau, southern Paris, shows a view of the sky with stars across the Milky Way during the "Nuits des �toiles" (Starry Night), a major annual celebration for astronomy enthusiasts. Since 1991, Nuits des �toiles has been organized by teams of volunteer astronomers. Celestial dust will be the theme of the 2023 edition of Nuits des �toiles, organized by the Association Fran�aise d'Astronomie and more than 250 clubs, associations, planetariums and town halls. The celestial spectacle will also be at its peak with the Perseids. (Photo by MIGUEL MEDINA / AFP)

In this grab from a handout footage taken and released by the Russian Space Agency Roscosmos on August 11, 2023, a Soyuz 2.1b rocket with the Luna-25 lander blasts off from the launch pad at the Vostochny cosmodrome, some 180 km north of Blagoveschensk, in the Amur region. Russia launched its first probe to the Moon in almost 50 years on August 11, 2023, a mission designed to give fresh impetus to its space sector, which has been struggling for years and become isolated by the conflict in Ukraine. The launch of the Luna-25 probe is Moscow's first lunar mission since 1976, when the USSR was a pioneer in the conquest of space. The spacecraft is due to reach lunar orbit in five days.

In this undated handout image provided by Virgin Galactic on August 10, 2023, the three passengers who will take part in Virgin Galactic's private astronaut mission Galactic 02 (L-R) Anastatia Mayers, 18, Jon Goodwin, 80, and Keisha Schahaff, 46, stand for a photo. Three passengers gained tickets to participate in Galactic's private astronaut mission in a sweepstake contest. England's Jon Goodwin will be the first Olympian to travel to space, and the second person in space with Parkinson's disease. Keisha Schahaff, 46, and her daughter Anastatia Mayers, 18, join the flight as the first mother-daughter duo, and Mayers is the second youngest person to travel to space.

Indian spacecraft Chandrayaan-3, the word for "moon craft" in Sanskrit, travels after it was launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, India, Friday, July 14, 2023. The Indian spacecraft blazed its way to the far side of the moon Friday in a follow-up mission to its failed effort nearly four years ago to land a rover softly on the lunar surface, the country's space agency said. A successful landing would make India the fourth country, after the United States, the Soviet Union, and China, to achieve the feat. (AP Photo/Aijaz Rahi)

(FILES) This NASA file image obtained 09 August 2002 shows one of the Voyager spacecraft. Now in its 25th year, Voyager continues its quest to push the bounds of space exploration. The twin Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft opened new vistas in space by greatly expanding our knowledge of Jupiter and Saturn. NASA's Voyager 2 probe has signaled it is in "good health" after mission control mistakenly cut contact for several days, the space agency said in its latest update. Launched in 1977 as a beacon from humanity to the wider Universe, it is currently more than 12.3 billion miles (19.9 billion kilometers) from our planet, exploring interstellar space along with its twin, Voyager 1. A series of planned commands sent to Voyager 2 on July 21, 2023, "inadvertently caused the antenna to point two degrees away from Earth," NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) said in a recent update.
