Was tipped off to this discovery on one of the Yahoo groups. The
following URL has information on the newly discovered impact crater.

Found the crater on Google Earth, and the image resolution is very
good. Crater looks nice at altitude of 35 miles. If you'd like to
take a look, the coordinates are approximately:
24 deg 41 min 17 sec N
24 deg 57 min 58 sec E
Has the age of this newly discovered impact crater been determined yet? I
wonder if this impact structure is related to the relatively nearby "Arkenu"
impact sites (just across from the Tropic of Cancer, also very prominently
visible with Google Earth).
