QUOTE 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) https://isro.gov.in/LEOS.html |

Finally, the Pragyan rover has photographed the lander.
Also visible are the ChaSTE surface temperatures instrument and the ISLA seismic experiment. Chandrayaan Lander seen from the Rover |

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. --Bill -------------------- |

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: https://twitter.com/Ramanean/status/1696872872663486945 He may be right. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Great job! The photo looks very natural, can you share how you made it? Thanks! 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! -------------------- |

New camera view. Edit: Nevermind it is just zoomed in view from camera next to ramp. |
