NASA scientist finds major new moon crater

A NASA scientist discovered the largest newly formed impact crater in the solar system on the moon, named the McGetchin Crater, formed between April 11 and May 22, 2024, after a comet or asteroid struck the lunar surface. The crater measures 728 feet wide and 141 feet deep, resulting from an impact with an object possibly the size of a three- to six-story building. This discovery was made during a routine image comparison using NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, highlighting the event’s rarity and significance.
