The crater was discovered in the heavily forested Lesser Xing’an mountain range, where local residents knew it as “Quanshan,” or “circular mountain ridge.” The Yilan crater, slightly larger than Xiuyan, spans about 1.85 kilometers (1.15 miles), making it the largest crater on Earth under 100,000 years old.Ricochet from a meteorite impact on Earth created a huge 'field' of craters that so far, we have only seen examples of on other planets. The unique site in southeast Wyoming has more than 30
Around 2 billion years ago, an asteroid crashed near present-day Johannesburg, carving out what is now the world’s largest known crater. The impact initially put a dent in Earth’s surface that
Hellas is the third- or fourth-largest known impact crater in the Solar System. The basin floor is about 7,152 m (23,465 ft) deep, 3,000 m (9,800 ft) deeper than the Moon's South Pole-Aitken basin, and extends about 2,300 km (1,400 mi) east to west. [4] [5] It is centered at 42.4°S 70.5°E. [3] Hellas Planitia spans the boundary between theCitation: New study says left-over planetesimals, not asteroids, created the moon's largest craters (2022 Meteorite analysis shows Earth's building blocks contained water.

50,000-year-old Meteor Crater east of Flagstaff, Arizona, U.S. on Earth. An impact crater is a circular depression in the surface of a solid astronomical object formed by the hypervelocity impact of a smaller object. In contrast to volcanic craters, which result from explosion or internal collapse, [2] impact craters typically have raised rims
These Lakes Are Actually Craters Made By Asteroids. O n June 30th, 1908, an asteroid entered the Earth’s atmosphere above Tunguska, Siberia and exploded with the energy of about 185 Hiroshima
