India’s Chandrayaan-3 rover has etched its mark on the Moon’s south pole, unveiling groundbreaking discoveries for potential lunar habitats. The Pragyan rover, equipped with the Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscope (LIBS), detected sulfur traces and other minerals on the lunar surface. This revelation was announced by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) on X, the platform previously known as Twitter. Pragyan’s onboard instruments, including the alpha particle X-ray spectrometer, are designed to decipher the Moon’s chemical composition. By firing laser pulses, the rover transforms lunar rock or soil into plasma, analyzing the emitted light to identify elements. Each element, when in its … Continue reading Chandrayaan-3’s Big Reveal: ISRO’s Rover Uncovers Unexpected Minerals on Moon’s South Pole!
