“The Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) instrument onboard Chandrayaan-3 Rover

 has made the first-ever in-situ measurements on the elemental composition of the lunar surface near the south pole,” the Isro

said in its statement on Tuesday.

Apart from sulphur, the spectroscope of pragyan , a laser induced technique, was employed to find out various elements like iron , calcium, chromium, titanium, mangnese, oxygen and silicon on the lunar surface
