ISRO's Wake-Up Call Goes Unanswered by Chandrayaan-3
TL;DR
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will continue its attempts to revive the Vikram lander and Pragyaan rover until the next lunar sunset on October 6. The lander and rover have been unresponsive for 14 Earth days in complete darkness and extremely low temperatures on the Moon's surface. However, scientists are hopeful that as temperatures rise, the possibility of revival will increase. If successful, the mission will have an extended life, allowing for additional experiments and sample collection.
