NASA received this picture through its Lunar Reconation Orbiter (LRO). This image has come out by preparing the mosaic of thousands of pictures of this area of the moon. In this, the moon’s round and brown disk can be seen. The picture also shows big pits on the moon.
Ever since NASA shared this picture, it is getting a large number of likes. One user wrote in the comment that there are many pits compared to sunny parts in the remote part of the moon.
Talk about NASA’s Lro Spacecraft, it was launched in June 2009. The size of Lro is as much as a mini cooper car. This spacecraft stays 50 km above the moon and makes it circle. The LRO has also prepared a 3D map of the moon. It also shows water stored in the polar crater.
Significantly, space agencies around the world are sending their missions on the moon. Recently, Japan’s slim moon lander reached the moon. Last year, India’s Chandrayaan-3 mission created history by landing on the southern pole of the moon. India became the first country in the world to do so.
