India's Chandrayaan-3 mission continues to make significant discoveries as the Pragyan rover has found a 160-kilometer-wide ancient crater in the Moon's south polar region. Located approximately 350 kilometers from the South Pole-Aitken basin, this crater is believed to predate the basin and offers crucial insights into the Moon's geological history. Images from Pragyan's cameras reveal the structure of the crater, which has been mostly buried by debris from later impacts, providing scientists a rare chance to study ancient lunar material and improve understanding of the Moon's evolution.
