India's upgraded 'Bahubali' rocket, known as Launch Vehicle Mark 3 (LM-3), is set to send Chandrayaan-3, India's third mission to the moon. With a 100% success rate, the LM-3 stands tall on the coast of the Bay of Bengal in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh. This mission holds great importance as it aims to achieve a soft landing on the moon, a crucial milestone in celestial body exploration. The launch is scheduled for Friday (July 14) at 2.35 pm, and the satellite, weighing 3921 kilograms, will embark on a nearly four-lakh-kilometer journey. Chandrayaan-3 carries seven scientific instruments and seeks to become the fourth country, after Russia, the United States, and China, to achieve a successful soft landing on the moon.
