Scientists have discovered the oldest famous Meteorite Crater on Earth. This discovery may change the idea of the planet’s early geological history.
Scientists have made a historical discovery – in the Pilbar (Australia) region, the oldest Meteorite Crater was found on Earth, Science Daily reports.
It is known that its age is 3.5 billion years, more than one billion people older than the previous note.
Researchers have found “destruction of cones” – unique geological structures that occur only when meteorites fall. The detected crater has a diameter of more than 100 km, and the meteorite it formed moved at a speed of more than 36,000 km/h.
Scientists note that this discovery will help better understand the meteorite bombing of the early ground and explain how the land crust is formed – the blow can lead to increased magma or subduction processes. In addition, it will help discover new theories about the emergence of life – after all, meteorite craters often contain hot resources that can be the “hammock” of the first microorganisms.
“We know that the early day’s belt has experienced frequent meteorite bombing, which is judged by lunar craters. But the absence of such prolonged craters on the ground has led to the fact that the aspect of the history of geological research.
Scientists believe that ancient craters could be bigger, and their future seekers may change our idea of world history.
Earlier it was reported that scientists discovered a new crater over Mars.
NASA showed a crater generated by the collapse of the month-25
