Chandrayaan-3, India's third moon mission, is set to launch on July 14 at 2:35 pm.

The mission follows the crash-landing of Chandrayaan-2 in September 2019 due to a software glitch.

Chandrayaan-3 aims to learn from past mistakes and incorporates improvements for a successful landing.

The mission consists of an indigenous propulsion module, lander module, and rover.
