Tamara Jones+FollowEarth’s Wildest Scar: Meteor Crater SecretsImagine a mile-wide crater in Arizona that’s basically a real-life time capsule from the Ice Age. Barringer Crater (aka Meteor Crater) was blasted out in seconds by a space rock 50,000 years ago—so powerful it vaporized itself! It’s the most intact impact crater on Earth, so well-preserved that NASA trained Apollo astronauts there. The wildest part? The original meteorite is almost totally gone, leaving only tiny fragments. Standing on the rim feels like staring into Earth’s cosmic past! #Science #SpaceHistory #MeteorCrater462Share
