Chandrayaan-2: Moon landing at 1.55am Sept 7

"Today, we've crossed a major milestone. The precise LOI (Lunar Orbiter Insertion) manoeuvre carried out at about 9am for about 30 minutes has put Chandrayaan-2 in the desired orbit perfectly. In order to achieve the soft-landing on September 7, there's a unique requirement. The inclination of spacecraft needed to achieve an inclination of 90 Degrees," K Sivan said.
