The South Pole-Aitken basin (represented by the shades of blue at the center) stretches 1,550 miles (2,500 kilometers) across and is one of the solar system’s largest craters. The dashed circle indicates the spot where researchers found a weird material beneath the basin that contains metal. (Credit: NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center/University of Arizona) 1 posted on

It was the Lambians’ annihilator beam that would have destroyed everyone, had not the Thuriens arrived in the nick of time to take the survivors to Earth.
If only Koriel had made it. (He did).

“The dashed circle indicates the spot where researchers found a weird material beneath the basin that contains metal.”
What metal? Does the article kind of contradict this? or did I miss something? If they did find metal, I would be very curious what metal this is. :)

Hmm...the Soviets were the first to photograph the dark side with Lunik III in 1959. Immediately all lunar features on that side were given Russian or communist names.
In high school I saw a lunar globe which had Latin named features on one side,and Soviet ones on the other.
Wonder if that’s still the case.

The Late Heavy Bombardment (abbreviated LHB and also known as the lunar cataclysm) is an event thought to have occurred approximately 4.1 to 3.8 billion years ago, at a time corresponding to the Neohadean and Eoarchean eras on Earth.
Stuff hit the newly formed moon, too. In fact, the moon was formed during this time from the bombardment.
It hit from all angles, and various speeds, velocities and containing different densities.
There really is no mystery. The Earth once had such damage, but volcanic flows, plate tectonics and atmospheric weathering has wiped it clean.
We should be so lucky the God has formed such a magnificent universe for us!

The crater was made by time and money. :P

Obviously, a space alien cat did it digging for a tinkle spot. What else could possibly make craters?
