Chandrayaan-3 landed within a buried impact crater, which is around 160 km in size, 4.4 km deep, and likely to be older than the South Pole Atkin (SPA) basin.

"Complex craters occur above a certain diameter crater, the cutoff diameter is dependent on gravity, so it varies from planet to planet (or moon to moon)," NASA officials wrote of Kepler. Simpler ...

A probable crater stretching more than 370 miles, or 600 kilometers, across the heart of Australia could reshape our understanding of Earth's geological history.

3) Impact craters found on the surface of all terrestrial bodies in the Solar System can be divided into two morphologically distinct classes: Simple craters and Complex craters.

A crater-rich dwarf planet named Ceres located in the main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter was long thought to be composed of a materials mixture not dominated by water ice ...

A decade ago, a mysterious crater appeared in the Russian Arctic, forming a huge jagged hole hundreds of feet wide. Since then more than 20 have formed, leaving scientists baffled and intrigued ...

New satellite images show continuing work at Iran’s Fordow nuclear enrichment plant, which was struck by US B-2 bombers just ...

The images reveal heavy machinery still in place, additional earthwork, and signs that tunnel entrances may have been sealed off before the strikes.

The deep lying porosity discovered by GRAIL has been difficult to explain, with most current models only able to explain high porosity near the lunar surface (first few kilometers) or inside complex ...

Complex craters exhibit somewhat unintuitive structures such as central peaks, or an inner 'peaked' ring, terraced rim walls and outer concentric faulted zones.
