Crater Berringera
Immediately warned experts and skeptics, that we know of the existence of at least two craters formed by meteorite with a diameter many times the size of Arizona crater.
However, there is one thing. Crater, located in Antarctica is covered with ice many centuries and its shape has changed significantly compared to the original. The same goes for the 400-kilometer crater in Canada. Berringera or Crater Meteor Crater - the world's largest meteorite crater, whose form has remained virtually unchanged since its inception.
It is in US Arizona desert and its diameter is 1200 meters, with a depth of about 180 meters.
It was formed about 50 thousand years ago by the fall of a meteorite 50-meter at the speed of 45-60 000 km / h.
Body weight was about 300 000 tons. The power of the explosion three times the energy of the Tunguska explosion in 8000 again - a nuclear explosion in Hiroshima.
It is often carried out the shooting, as well as preparing astronauts. In addition, the place is very popular among tourists.
