India made history by being the first country to land on the lunar surface's South Pole. Prime Minister Modi thanked Indians and space scientists for their successful mission. 'India will remember this day forever,' declared Prime Minister Modi.

The mission's true test began with the final leg of the landing. ISRO activated the Automatic touchdown Sequence (ALS) 20 minutes before touchdown. It allowed Vikram LM to assume command and utilize its onboard computers and logic to choose a suitable landing site on the lunar surface.

Experts believe that the last 15 to 20 minutes of the mission when Chandrayaan-3's Vikram lander came to a smooth landing, were critical to the mission's success.

Given the failure of India's second lunar mission in the final 20 minutes before landing, ISRO was extra careful this time around. Many refer to the time as "20 or 17 minutes of terror" due to the tremendous risk to the spacecraft minutes before lunar landing. During this stage, the entire procedure became autonomous, with the Vikram lander activating its own engines at the appropriate times and altitudes.
