... Was tipped off to this discovery on one of the Yahoo groups. The following URL has information on the newly discovered impact crater. http://www.planetary.org/news/2006/0...le_Source.html 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). http://www.unb.ca/passc/ImpactDataba...es/arkenu1.htm Jeroen. |
