00:00 We are nearing the final phase of the power descent, which is going to be the vertical
00:07 descent phase or the local navigation phase.
00:11 Lot of
00:41 applause indicates that till now the performance has been nominal.
00:49 We are in the vertical descent phase 1.
00:54 The altitude is being brought down from 800 meters and we are nearing and approaching
01:02 the lunar surface.
01:04 You can see on your screen that the height of the lander is decreasing.
01:13 We are just above the landing site and the altitude is around 600 meters.
01:21 We are above the landing site.
01:38 The horizontal as well as the vertical velocity is now being constantly reduced and the lander
01:46 module has begun its descent towards the landing site.
01:53 The lander is following the path as it is being directed.
02:11 We have come down from a height of 200 meters.
02:23 We are approaching the vertical descent phase 2, which will have the lander module hovering
02:41 at nearly 150 meters above the lunar surface.
02:50 The sensors that are updating at this point are providing confirmation of the safety of
03:19 the landing site.
03:22 The retargeting is going on and this is a very good signature for the lander.
03:42 Currently only two engines are now being fired and we are nearly at zero velocity, vertical
03:51 and horizontal.
03:52 We were hovering and now we are approaching the moon surface.
04:11 We can see the honorable Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi ji, who is here to encourage
04:18 and he is critically looking at the visuals.
04:24 People are applauding.
