I was going through the latest updates on Chandrayaan-2 and thought of informing y'all about this one, which I found quite interesting.

This is literally wierd as this shouldn't have been like this. The Chandrayaan-2 Vikram Lander was tried to be located twice, once before the lunar night and one now. However, both of them showed no trace of Vikram. Why I am calling this wierd is this - in the official release ISRO had said that NASA's two attempts were made perpendicular to each other. If you visualize it, it's like taking the picture at two perpendicular angles, which results in high accuracy.
However, both the photos found no trace of Vikram. Of course, there are few permanent shadows on the southern part of the Moon, and maybe we're unlucky they Vikram is lying in one of them, cuz it's not possible for it to vanish over a fortnight (practically even lesser than that).
Hope this will be an interesting article for y'all!
