In the spring of 2024, a rock from space quietly rewrote a small chapter of lunar history, carving a crater into the Moon's near side that no human eye witnessed in the moment of its making. Nearly two years later, NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter found the scar — a 728-foot-wide wound named McGetchin, the largest fresh impact feature detected since the orbiter began its vigil in 2009. The discovery reminds us that the Moon is not a static relic but a living record of cosmic violence, and that our instruments are only beginning to learn how to read it.
