After making it hop once, India's moon lander Vikram was put to sleep, the Indian space agency said.
"Vikram Lander is set into sleep mode around 08:00 Hrs. IST today. Prior to that, in-situ experiments by ChaSTE, RAMBHA-LP and ILSA payloads are performed at the new location.
The data collected is received at the Earth. Payloads are now switched off. Lander receivers are kept ON," the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) said on the X platform.
"Vikram will fall asleep next to Pragyan (moon rover) once the solar power is depleted and the battery is drained. Hoping for their awakening, around September 22, 2023," ISRO added.
Earlier, ISRO had said Vikram soft landed on the lunar soil for a second time.
