Meteor crater
Aerial view of Meteor Crater, Arizona. Sometimes called the Barringer Crater, it was recognised as a meteor impact crater early in the 20th century and is thought to be about 25, 000 years old. Several attempts to mine the iron-rich material of the meteor were made before a visitor centre was built in the 1960 s. The crater is in northeastern Arizona, near Winslow, and is about 200 metres (600 feet) deep and 800 metres (1/2 mile) across

EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of the Meteor Crater in Arizona showcases the sheer magnitude and awe-inspiring beauty of this natural wonder. Also known as the Barringer Crater, it was discovered to be a meteor impact site in the early 20th century, dating back approximately 25,000 years. The image captures the vastness of this crater, measuring an impressive 800 meters (1/2 mile) across and plunging to depths of around 200 meters (600 feet). The photograph tells a story that goes beyond its visual appeal. It highlights the numerous attempts made by miners to extract iron-rich materials from this celestial visitor before realizing its true significance. Eventually, recognizing its value as a scientific landmark and tourist attraction, a visitor center was established in the 1960s. Located near Winslow in northeastern Arizona, this meteor crater is not only an emblematic symbol of our planet's geological history but also serves as a testament to the extraordinary forces at play within our universe. Its presence reminds us of how small we are compared to cosmic events that shape our world. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this momentous scene with their exceptional attention to detail and dedication to showcasing Earth's wonders through photography. This stunning print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the environmental and geographical aspects surrounding meteorite craters while immersing themselves in one of nature's most remarkable creations.
