New Delhi: Chandrayaan-3 has discovered a new crater on the moon. This crater is 160 kilometers wide and is near the landing site of Chandrayaan-3. Scientists from the Physical Research Laboratory in Ahmedabad have published a report about this discovery in Science Direct. This new crater has been found from the data sent by the Pragyan Rover. The Pragyan Rover is currently roaming on the south pole of the moon and is exploring there.
One of the oldest craters on the Moon
This new crater has been found 350 kilometers away from the Aitken Basin, the oldest and largest crater on the moon. When the Pragyan Rover was passing through this area, it saw this new crater. Scientists believe that this crater is even older than the Aitken Basin, that is, it is one of the oldest structures on the moon. This crater is so old that over time it got buried in debris and slowly deteriorated. The Pragyan Rover has taken pictures of this crater with its cameras, which will give scientists a chance to learn more about the history of the moon.
