Model Age Derivation of Large Martian Impact Craters, Using Automatic Crater Counting Methods
Determining when an impact crater formed is a complex and tedious task. However, this knowledge is crucial to understanding the geological history of planetary bodies and, more specifically, gives information on erosion rate measurements, meteorite ...

A Possible Second Large Subglacial Impact Crater in Northwest Greenland
Following the discovery of the Hiawatha impact crater beneath the northwest margin of the Greenland Ice Sheet, we explored satellite and aerogeophysical data in search of additional such craters.

Impact crater degradation, Oxia Planum, Mars
The main goal of the European Space Agency (ESA) and Roscosmos ExoMars rover mission is to collect samples from the near-subsurface of Mars. The rover will look for any physical or chemical evidence of ancient life in the near subsurface.

Evaluation of Geomorphological Evidences for Possible Impact Crater of Zirouki in Sistan and Baluchestan, SE Iran [PDF]
Despite the extensive studies on geomorphological phenomena in Iran, since investigation of meteorite impact craters h not been considered. Based on both remote sensing technique and field work we have recognized the circular structure of Zirouki crater ...

Experimental Investigation of the Crater Caused by Hypervelocity Rod Projectile Impacting on Rocks
To investigate the cratering effects of hypervelocity rod projectile impacting on rocks, a two-stage light gas gun was used to carry out 10 groups of small-scale experiments, whose velocity ranges from 1.5 km/s to 4.1 km/s.

Microbial Life in Impact Craters [PDF]
Asteroid and comet impacts are known to have caused profound disruption to multicellular life, yet their influence on habitats for microorganisms, which comprise the majority of Earth's biomass, is less well understood. Of particular interest are geological changes in the target lithology at and near the point of impact that can persist for billions of
