The launch of Chandrayaan 2 was initially scheduled for 14 July, 2019. But, it was postponed due to a technical error. After the long wait, Chandrayaan 2 was launched on its course to the Moon on 22 July, 2019, a decade after the launch of Chandrayaan 1. Planned for duration of seven years, the mission was launched at 2:43 PM by GSLVMk III from the second launch pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota.
On 20 August, 2019, Chandrayaan 2 reached the orbit of the Moon and began its efforts to land the Vikram lander. Both Vikram and the rover were scheduled to land in the South Polar Region. But things did not quite go as planned. The Vikram lander slightly deviated from its intended path and the communication with it was lost for a while. K Sivan, 1SRO chairman later confirmed the location of the lander.
