"After countless setbacks and delays, India will attempt to set a lander
down on the Moon in the early hours of 7 September Indian time. If the
landing is successful, the nation will be only the fourth to achieve
such a feat.
Chandrayaan-2 shot into space six weeks ago — more than a year behind
schedule — comprising an orbiter and a lander, Vikram, loaded with a
six-wheeled rover. The mission’s main aims are to investigate the
unexplored lunar south pole and provide the most detailed maps yet of
sources of water on the Moon."
