NASA Clicks Vikram Lander photo! but it have a problem!


Just two days ago, ISRO announced that NASA's Moon Lander would take a photo of India's Chandrayaan 2 Vikram lander. But NASA's Moon Lander has just announced that it won't be able to locate the Vikram Lander. However, NASA clicked a photo

Sept. 6, Vikram Lander

There is a recurring problem with taking a photo of Vikram Lander, who has fallen to the surface of the moon. India's Chandrayaan 2 Vikram lander crashed on September 6 while landing on the Moon's South Pole

NASA's Moon Orbiter

NASA recently told ISRO that NASA's Moon Orbiter would help photograph the malfunctioning Vikram lander and send it back to Earth. ISRO agreed and waited for Vikram Lander's photo

NASA has trouble finding Vikram Lander space

NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) NASA's LRO Orbiter has not been able to locate the Vikram Lander, as it expects to detect and photograph the location of the Vikram Lander from the surface of the Moon's south pole

The reason stated by NASA

NASA has also released a reason why NASA's orbiter could not photograph it. The long shadow of the moon has begun since early morning yesterday, when NASA's orbiter is over the moon's south pole. Thus parts of the moon are often surrounded by darkness

Long shadow period

In particular, there has been a great deal of darkness around the polar regions where the Vikram lander has fallen, NASA said. NASA has explained the reason why the moon could not be photographed until the moon's long shadow period lasts two weeks

Moon's Before - Aftermarket

However, NASA has failed to take a photo of the orbiter, NASA has announced that a photo of the previous moon that NASA's orbiter clicked and the before-after photo of the Vikram lander that was clicked yesterday is on NASA's website
