Chandrayaan's Pragyan rover avoids 4m crater, safe path picked

Internationaldesk:

ISRO on Monday said that on August 27, Chandrayaan-3 rover Pragyan came across a 4-metre diameter crater positioned 3 metres ahead of its location, causing it to change its path.
ISRO said ,“The Rover was commanded to retrace the path. It’s now safely heading on a new path." This is the second crater Pragyan has encountered — it has successfully negotiated a small crater with a depth of approximately 100-mm earlier.
One senior scientist said that,“The crater that was first negotiated was a small one. This is a much bigger crater and a decision was made to avoid it and choose a safe path.”
