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.

Computer simulations have revealed that a vast region of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico, may have behaved like a fluid during the formation of the Chicxulub impact crater. Gareth Collins, Imperial ...

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.

The satellite images point to damage to Fordo in the form of several large diameter holes or craters across the site. A layer ...

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 ...
