Honestly, 90% of spaceflight these days is absurd techbro hubris and longtermist pipedreams, but missions like #Chadrayaan3 are genuinely scientifically and technologically interesting. Wishing #ISRO all the best, and hoping for a good data return. Keep doing the good science, guys!

Deep Space Station 36 is in touch with @isro’s #Chandrayaan3 spacecraft as it prepares for its landing attempt on the Moon in about 10.5 hours from now.

On Deep Space Network Now, you may see intermittently that there are no communications. No cause for concern. That may just be due to the spacecraft passing behind the Moon from our point of view. Follow the @isro feed and #Chadrayaan3 hashtag for the latest mission updates.
