Chandrayaan-3 Mission:
Smile, please📸!
Pragyan Rover clicked an image of Vikram Lander this morning.
The 'image of the mission' was taken by the Navigation Camera onboard the Rover (NavCam).
NavCams for the Chandrayaan-3 Mission are developed by the Laboratory for Electro-Optics Systems (LEOS)

Finally, the Pragyan rover has photographed the lander.
Also visible are the ChaSTE surface temperatures instrument and the ISLA seismic experiment.

The lander doesn't appear to have a steerable antenna ...

The lander has a steerable X-band antenna. The square-shaped thing in the upper right corner, I suppose.

Have we located the landing point on LRO or terrestrial imagery yet?
From discussions I've narrowed it to between 2 or 3 craters.

The lander was directly observed by Chandrayaan-2 quickly after landing. See here.

As you know we don't have a lot of detail to be used for mapping activities. This is my first guess at what a map might look like. I'll get a scale etc. later.

The place where the drive was blocked by a crater is uncertain, and I have seen a different interpretation from our friend Shan:

He may be right.

Thanks! I colorized the B&W picture on Photoshop: I added a transparent layer in "Color" mode, put the right colors on it, played with saturation and that's it!
