The landing module, comprising lander Vikram and rover Pragyan, will separate from the orbiter on Monday (September 2) or early Tuesday. On Monday, after the integrated spacecraft is stabilised in an orbit ideal for separation— which is estimated to be 121km X 125km— Isro will load the sequence of commands for the separation, which will then be autonomously executed by the onboard systems.
