The Instrument for Lunar Seismic Activity's (ILSA) primary objective is to measure ground vibrations generated by natural quakes, impacts, and artificial events.
The Instrument of Lunar Seismic Activity payload on Chandrayaan-3's Lander Vikram recorded a natural event that occurred on the Moon's surface on August 26, the source of which is still under investigation, the space agency said.

The Instrument for Lunar Seismic Activity's (ILSA) primary objective is to measure ground vibrations generated by natural quakes, impacts, and artificial events.
The ILSA also recorded vibrations of the rover's movement on the Moon's surface on August 25. The space agency shared an acceleration-time graph that recorded the ILSA's response to the rover's movement.
