The correct answer is (b) Vikram.

Vikram was the lander of Chandrayaan-3, a lunar mission launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on 22 July 2022. The mission was intended to soft-land on the Moon’s south pole and conduct scientific experiments. However, the lander lost contact with the ground shortly before it was due to land.

The name Vikram was chosen in honour of Vikram Sarabhai, the father of the Indian space programme. Sarabhai was a visionary scientist who played a key role in the development of India’s space programme. He was also the founder of the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala.

(a) Tiranga: The name of the orbiter of Chandrayaan-3.
(c) Shakti: The name of the propulsion system of Chandrayaan-3.
(d) Pragyan: The name of the rover of Chandrayaan-3.
