 A similar strategy was used for Chandrayaan-1 and the Mars Orbiter Mission during their Earth-bound phase trajectory.On 3 August 2019, the first set of Earth images were captured by the LI4 camera on the "Vikram" lander, showing the North American landmass.After 29 days from its launch, the Chandrayaan-2 spacecraft stack entered lunar orbit on 20 August 2019 after performing a lunar orbit insertion burn for 28 minutes 57 seconds.
