The ILSA payload on the Chandrayaan 3 lander to study lunar seismic activity has not only recorded the movements of the rover and other payloads but also has recorded an event, appearing to be a natural one, on August 26.
“The source of this event is under investigation,” ISRO said.
These quantitative measurements potentially assist in mitigating the noise that Lunar plasma introduces into radio wave communication. Also, they could contribute to the enhanced designs for upcoming lunar visitors, ISRO said.
