India’s space agency said that it has been unable to receive signals from its lunar lander and rover after attempts to wake them up following the end of a two-week lunar night.
“Efforts have been made to establish communication with the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover to ascertain their wake-up condition,” the India Space Research Organization (ISRO) said Friday on X.
The lander and rover were put into sleep mode due to a two-week lunar night. ISRO said efforts to establish contact will continue.
India last month made history after its moon mission accomplished a soft landing at the lunar south pole, becoming the first country to do so.
