People across India celebrated on Wednesday after an Indian spacecraft became the first to land on the rugged, unexplored south pole of the moon in a mission seen as crucial to lunar exploration.
Footage from different cities showed people dancing, waving Indian flags, setting off firecrackers and playing drums following the breakthrough mission.
It was India's second attempt to land a spacecraft on the moon and comes less than a week after Russia's Luna-25 mission failed.
People across the country were glued to television screens and said prayers as the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft approached the surface.
