I trekked down to India's mysterious meteorite crater. See what's down there and why NASA visited it! It's attracted scientists from around the world due to its strange characteristics and anomalies, which I'll show you as I trek down to the base. This is Lonar Lake in the state of Maharashtra.

Lonar Lake is a natural saltwater lake in Maharashtra, India, formed 52,000 years ago due to a meteorite impact. It is located within the Lonar crater and is known for its unique ecological features.

The lake is saline, alkaline, and supports diverse microorganisms.

It attracts scientists, researchers, and tourists interested in astrobiology and the origin of life.
