The last time any country put boots on the moon was in 2013, when China landed its Yutu rover there. Before that, you'd have to look back to the 1970s to find anything built by Earthlings that camped out on the surface of the Moon. ISRO is getting ready to land its very first lunar rover by the end of March 2018, as part of its Chandrayaan-2 mission. This is not ISRO's first journey towards moon, but it is the Indian government's most ambitious moon exploration project to date.
