It was originally thought that Vikram had survived the impact, and ISRO continued trying to contact the lander until the lunar night. The Vikram lander lost contact at 2.1 km from the lunar surface, and was subsequently destroyed. The Queqiao relay satellite was placed in an Earth-Moon L 2 halo orbit.įirst private lunar lander.

NASA's Parker Solar Probe dives closer to the sun but the heat it is subjected to is too much for it to carry a sun-facing camera.ĭuring its first close approach to the sun, which took place in June 2020 at a distance of 48 million miles (77 million km), Solar Orbiter discovered miniature solar flares dubbed campfires on the surface of the sun. No other spacecraft fitted with a camera has ever flown so close. For the first time, Solar Orbiter will get to its target distance from the sun's surface, about 34 million miles (50 million km). This Earth flyby will give Solar Orbiter the final kick before its next close approach to the sun, which will take place in March of next year. Weird country-size 'campfires' on the sun revealed in closest-ever photos The Solar Orbiter is watching a new sun weather cycle begin.
