‘Chandrayaan-3’ is aimed at the lunar south pole, a region with water ice, or frozen water, that could be a source of oxygen, fuel and water for future moon missions or a more permanent moon colony.
A Twitter page named Newsthink stated ‘Interstellar‘, directed by renowned filmmaker Christopher Nolan, was filmed against a budget of $165 million, whereas the Indian government spent $75 million on the Chandrayaan-3 mission.
