Touchdown!

 In contrast to the unfortunate Russian effort, the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft successfully touched down close to the lunar south pole.

This makes India the fourth country to land on the moon. The landing was apparently textbook, and includes a rover, a lunar seisometer, and instruments to look for water ice.

The planned mission life of the spacecraft is only two weeks, but if we're lucky we'll get more out of it.

Now I wish somewhere in my neighborhood sold good Indian food...
