A crater on Pluto’s moon Charon has been named Revati, after the character of the Mahabharata play, who was said to belong to another ‘yuga’ making it akin to time travel. The decision was made by the International Astronomical Union a few days ago. Most of the craters on Charon have been named mostly after characters in western science fiction shows like Star Wars. The IAU said Revati was a popular suggestion.
