No one had reached before… Scientists made big claim about where Chandrayaan-3 has landed

New Delhi: India's 'Chandrayaan-3' probably landed on one of the oldest craters on the Moon. Scientists who analyzed the pictures received from the mission and satellite have expressed this possibility. A pit formed on a planet, satellite or other celestial object is called a crater. These craters are formed by volcanic eruptions. Apart from this, craters are also formed when a meteorite collides with another body. Researchers from the Physical Research Laboratory and the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said the crater where Chandrayaan-3 landed was formed during the Nectarean period. The Nectarean period dates back 3.85 billion years and is one of the oldest time periods on the Moon.

Associate Professor S. in the Planetary Science Division of the Physical Research Laboratory. Vijayan said the place where Chandrayaan-3 landed is a unique geological place, where no other mission has reached. The images obtained by the mission's rover are the first images of the Moon taken by a rover at this latitude. These show how the Moon evolved over time.
