Summary on Topic (Chandrayaan-3)
First off, you get a 250-word summary that’s pretty comprehensive. It tells you that Chandrayaan-3 is the third lunar exploration mission by ISRO (Indian Space Research Organization). Unlike its predecessor, Chandrayaan-2, this mission doesn’t have an orbiter but focuses on a lander and a rover. The summary also mentions the mission’s successful insertion into lunar orbit and its soft landing, a significant achievement after the failed attempt in 2019.

Perplexity doesn’t just stop at giving you a summary; it also provides you with six related links for deeper research. These links range from Wikipedia articles to news updates from Reuters and ISRO’s official page. So, you’ve got a variety of sources to quench your thirst for knowledge.
