In the latest development on Chandraayn 3 on the moon, the ISRO on Tuesday said that in-situ scientific experiments continue. The space agency also said that the Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscope (LIBS) instrument onboard the Rover unambiguously confirmed the presence of Sulphur (S) in the lunar surface near the south pole. "Al, Ca, Fe, Cr, Ti, Mn, Si, and O are also detected, as expected. Search for Hydrogen (H) is underway", ISRO said in its tweet.
