The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has successfully raised the orbit of the Chandrayaan-3 mission for the second time.
Reports said that the Orbit-Raising Maneuver has ensured that the spacecraft is now flying at a perigee of just over 200 kilometers.
Perigee is the point in the orbit of the moon at which it is nearest to the earth.
To achieve the precise altitude required to escape Earth's gravitational pull and embark on its journey toward the Moon, the Indian space agency will perform three more Earth-Bound Maneuvers.
