Don’t try to find it in the picture, folks. At that resolution the area of the crater would be less than two thousandths (2/1000) of a pixel if it were in the centre of the photograph.
So OP and I clearly have different definitions of the word "massive. "
Strictly speaking no crater can be massive, because a hole by definition is a lack of mass
Except for black holes
One of the first craters the orbiter spotted after it began its mission in 2009 was 70 meters wide, said Robinson, of Houston-based spaceflight company Intuitive Machines. “I used to joke with folks … that now the bar has been set, you have to find a 100-meter crater,” he said. “Now, lo and behold, we have 225 meters.”
This quote sounds like something that should be posted to !dullsters@dullsters.net.
We had a meteorite over Cleveland last week, and another over Houston that hit a house last week, and now a new crater on the moon. If we’re lucky, another dinosaur-level asteroid will put us out of our misery.
I, for one, look forward to the new jobs this asteroid will bring!
SMOD 2028!
Sleepy Joe couldn’t even keep the moon intact 🙄
why is the moon upside down?
Who are you to say which way is right side up?
I’m a reference frame
The moon is “upside down” for half the planet.
That broke my brain for a second.
it took me a few minutes to figure out why the moon looked weird
Because you probably live in the southern hemisphere and it is oriented in the thumbnail as it is in the northern hemisphere.
