NASA Discovers New, 'Once-in-a-Century' Moon Crater

A researcher at NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has discovered a massive, recently-formed crater on the Moon, dubbed "McGetchin," measuring 730 feet (222 meters) wide. This "once-in-a-century" event, believed to have occurred in spring 2024 from a comet or asteroid collision, is the largest new crater discovered in the solar system in recent times and offers valuable insights for future crewed missions.
