Jawahar Point
Moon Impact Probe's hard landing site
Jawahar Point or Jawahar Sthal is the site near the Shackleton Crater where the Moon Impact Probe (MIP) of the Chandrayaan-1 hard landed on lunar surface on 14 November 2008.[1] The name was suggested by India's former President A. P. J. Abdul Kalam[2] as the MIP touched the Moon on the birth anniversary of India's first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru.[3][4]
