When comparing OHRC imagery from #Chandrayaan2 with
@LROC images, it’s clear once again that @isro
’s OHRC remains the most capable lunar observation camera to date—delivering unmatched clarity, resolution, and detail from orbit.

A more detailed technical analysis, including debris mapping and trajectory implications, will be shared in an upcoming blog post, adding to my existing blog post that wrote early this year.

A distinct light-toned halo around the site indicates lunar regolith was ejected during impact. The debris spread extends noticeably from the point of contact, hinting at the significant kinetic force involved in the crash.

Both images offer high-resolution visuals of the impact site. In the first annotated image, the crash point is clearly visible, along with a debris field scattered around the site, providing valuable post-impact data.

The exact coordinates of the impact, as determined from OHRC imagery, are (60.445897, 355.410438). OHRC captured these images from an altitude of ~109 km, with a pixel resolution of 28 cm—some of the clearest views to date.

A week later, on June 12, 2025, India's #Chandrayaan2 orbiter captured two images of the crash site using its Orbiter High-Resolution Camera (OHRC) during two separate passes—at 20:31 UTC and 22:29 UTC.
