Chandrayaan-3 gets closer to 100km circular orbit; 1 move away before Vikram separation

The Isro has reduced the altitude of the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft to under 200km using a planned manoeuvre, with a further one planned for 16 August, which will take the spacecraft into a circular orbit of 100km, before the lander separates on 17 August. A critical analysis of each of the manoeuvres being performed will assess the potential risks of close approaches with the other lunar orbiters.
