This is due to the electronics&#8217; inability to endure the extremely low temperatures less than -120 degrees Celsius  that are experienced on the Moon at night. On Earth, the nighttime can last up to 14 days. However, it&#8217;s possible that the electronics can withstand the cold and will be able to reactivate if sunlight becomes accessible. This actually occurred on a Chinese lander mission a few years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ISRO chairman S Somanath, earlier in the day, had suggested that ISRO would try to extend the life of the lander and rover. &#8216;We are going to start the process of making them (lander and the rover) sleep in the next couple of days so that they can withstand the night,&#8217; Somanath said soon after the successful launch of the Aditya-L1 solar mission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newdelhi 3 Sep : In an effort to extend the life of the Chandrayaan-3 lander and rover, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) declared on Saturday that it has set&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10229,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10228","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-national"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10228","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10228"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10228\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10230,"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10228\/revisions\/10230"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10229"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10228"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10228"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/odiannews.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
