Indian rover confirms sulphur on Moon south pole
NEW DELHI: Indian Moon rover has confirmed the presence of sulphur on the lunar south pole, the country space agency said.
Last week, India became the first country to land a craft near the largely unexplored south pole, and just the fourth nation to land on the Moon.
"The Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) instrument onboard Chandrayaan-3 Rover has made the first-ever in-situ measurements on the elemental composition of the lunar surface near the south pole," the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) said in a statement dated Monday.
