India's mission to the Lunar South Pole, known as Chandrayaan 2, suffered a setback early Saturday morning Bengaluru (Bangalore) time, when the spacecraft's Vikram Lander stopped communicating during its descent to the Moon's surface.
In an update posted to Twitter at 0300 IST (2130 GMT), the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said, "#VikramLander descent was as planned and normal performance was observed up to an altitude of 2.1km. Subsequently, communication from Lander to the ground stations was lost. Data is being analyzed."
