India's Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft, launched on July 14, has covered about two-thirds of the distance to the Moon. The Lunar Orbit Injection (LOI) is scheduled for August 5, with the spacecraft set to be injected into the Moon's orbit. The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) confirmed that the spacecraft's health is normal, and a soft-landing on the lunar surface is planned for August 23. The mission has involved several manoeuvres to lift the spacecraft into orbits progressively farther from Earth.
