NASA discovers interesting new crater on moon’s surface

“NASA’s LRO – the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter – spacecraft imaged a new crater on the Moon’s surface that is likely the impact site of Russia’s Luna 25 mission. During its descent, Luna 25 experienced an anomaly that caused it to impact the surface of the Moon on Aug 19.”

“Roscosmos, Russia’s space agency, published an estimate of the impact point on Aug 21. The LROC (short for LRO Camera) team and the LRO Mission Operations team were able to design and send commands to the LRO spacecraft on Aug 22 to capture images of the site. The sequence began on Aug 24 at 2:15 pm EDT (18:15 UTC) and was completed about four hours later, at 6:12 pm EDT (22:12 UTC). The LROC team compared images taken prior to the impact time and the sequence taken after and found a small new crater… The new crater is about 10 meters in diameter and is located at 57.865 degrees south latitude and 61.360 degrees east longitude at an elevation of about minus 360 meters. The impact point was on the steep (greater than 20-degree grade) inner rim of Pontécoulant G crater, about 400 kilometers short of Luna 25’s intended landing point at 69.545 degrees south, 43.544 degrees east,” says NASA in a statement so detailed it could not be anything other than shade and lots of it for rival Russian space agency Roscosmos, scarcely concealing mockery of last month’s failed landing, which came just days before India’s successful Chandrayaan 3 mission.
