The device has completed its tasks and is now going into sleep mode, said ISRO in Bengaluru. The collected data were transmitted to earth. Sulfur and other elements were discovered.

The Chandrayaan-3 probe landed on the moon two weeks ago. India is the fourth country to land on the moon after the former Soviet Union, the United States and China. Shortly before, a renewed attempt by Russia had failed after almost 50 years. Yesterday, India also launched a space mission to further explore the sun.
