Orbit
Edit
After a series of earth bound manoeuvres that placed Chandrayaan-3 in a trans-lunar injection orbit,[30][31][32] ISRO performed a lunar-orbit insertion (LOI) on 5 August, successfully placing the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft into an orbit around the Moon. The LOI operation was carried out from the ISRO Telemetry, Tracking, and Command Network (ISTRAC) in Bengaluru.[33][34]
