To make up for the loss of seven days due to the delay in the launch, the flight duration of Chandrayaan-2 from the earth to the moon has been reduced from 54 days to 48 days by tweaking the flight path. (Image source: ISRO twitter)
Its lander will descend on the moon by September 7. (Image source: ISRO twitter)
