Dhala crater
Dhala crater (N25°17'59.7" and E78°8'3.1") is a crater formed by an asteroid impact.[1] It is situated in Shivpuri district, Madhya Pradesh India and is the second such crater found in India, after Lonar lake.[2] The diameter of the structure is estimated at 11 km[3] and basement rocks are predominantly composed of granitoids. It is estimated that the impact occurred between 2.44 and 2.24 Ga.[4] It is 240 km from the Ramgarh crater, the location of 11th century Bhand Deva Temple being renovated by INTACH in 2018.
Largest in India
Dhala crater is considered as the largest in India. [2][5]
gollark: caddy is a newer and trendier one which does nice stuff like HTTPS without having to use an external program like certbot, but in my opinion v2 made configuring it quite annoying.
gollark: I'd recommend nginx for reverse-proxying, it has reasonably non-annoying configuration and is very fast.
gollark: Reverse proxies are mostly a HTTP thing. You can probably get away with just running the other stuff on multiple ports.
gollark: You can also have that one reverse proxy server do all the HTTPS, which is mildly convenient.
gollark: So just set up the router thing to only send traffic to the reverse proxy thing, and configure that properly.
