A statement released by ISRO said 3D images of the Sarabhai crater showed that the crater was about 1.7 km deep from the raised shore and that its wall slope was 25 to 35 degrees. This discovery will allow astronomers to gain more information about lava and the moon. The statement said that Chandrayaan-2 is working in line with the design and the scientist is receiving important data from it. Chandrayaan-2 will start publishing scientific statistics for global use from October this year.

Chandrayaan-2 was launched on July 22, 2019 with the intention of going to the moon's south pole. However, its lander record had a hard landing on the lunar surface on September seven. Due to which, India's dream of becoming the first country to make a soft landing on the first attempt was shattered.

Image
- Chinese scientists and government officials are not willing to accept this phenomenon - According to NASA scientists, on March 4, 2022, a Chinese rocket booster hit the Earth on the dark side of the Moon. Houston/Mumbai: The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), an American space research organization, has sent some images of the moon's surface. In this image, two meteorites (called craters in astronomical terms) can be seen on the lunar surface. Both craters in that image of the moon appear to be on top of each other. Scientists call this phenomenon strange. Astronomers are now studying to find out the real cause and effect of the two large, deep meteorites that hit the lunar surface. There is also a debate that the two meteorites on the lunar surface were formed by the impact of the Chinese rocket. This incident happened because the upper part of the Chinese - Chang-5 TA - mission hit the lunar surface. But only one...

The use of e-passport has started in more than 100 countries of the world. E-passports are even used in India's neighboring countries like Pakistan , Nepal and Bangladesh.
