The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has announced that Chandrayaan-3, India's latest lunar mission, successfully left Earth's orbit and is now en route to the Moon. After completing its Earth orbits, the spacecraft entered the translunar orbit thanks to a successful perigee-firing performed at ISTRAC. The Lunar-Orbit Insertion (LOI) is scheduled for August 5, marking the next crucial step in the mission.
