Vikram and Pragyan cannot be categorized as space junk, which refers to the non-functional objects still in Earth&#8217;s orbit, because they will stay on the Moon&#8217;s surface when they cease to function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Space junk, also known as space debris, refers to abandoned human-made objects that linger in Earth&#8217;s orbit and endanger operational spacecraft. These items range in size from tiny particles produced by diverse space operations to disintegrated spacecraft components. To be clear, though, lunar surface remnants like <mark style=\"background-color:#8ed1fc\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Vikram and Pragyan do not add to the space junk problem<\/mark>, according to Manish Purohit, a former ISRO scientist who worked on the Chandrayaan-2 and Mangalyaan missions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India became the first nation to successfully soft-land in the south pole zone of the moon when the Chandrayaan-3 lander landed there on August 23 at 6:03 pm IST, writing history in the process.
