Dynamics of shallow impact cratering
We present data for the time-dependence of wooden spheres penetrating into a loose non-cohesive packing of glass beads. The stopping time is a factor of three longer than the time $d/v_\circ$ needed to travel the total penetration distance $d$ at the impact speed $v_\circ$. The acceleration decreases monotonically throughout the impact.

Hypervelocity impact study: The effect of impact angle on crater morphology [PDF]
The Space Power Institute (SPI) of Auburn University has conducted preliminary tests on the effects of impact angle on crater morphology for hypervelocity impacts. Copper target plates were set at angles of 30 deg and 60 deg from the particle flight path.

A history of the Lonar crater, India: An overview [PDF]
The origin of the circular structure at Lonar, India, described variously as cauldron, pit, hollow, depression, and crater, has been a controversial subject since the early nineteenth century.

On the detection of the Wilkes Land impact crater
The definitive existence of a giant impact crater, two times larger than the Chixulub crater in the Yucatan peninsula, from an extraterrestrial origin, 1.6 km beneath Wilkes Land, East Antarctica, remain controversial.

Projectile Interactions in Granular Impact Cratering
We present evidence for the interactions between a ball and the container boundaries, as well as between two balls, that are mediated by the granular medium during impact cratering. The presence of the bottom boundary affects the final penetration depth only for low drop heights with shallow filling, in which case, surprisingly, the penetration becomes

Crater Morphometry on Callisto
Impact crater formation is affected by the physical properties of planetary crusts, allowing comparison of crater dimensions to serve as a proxy for comparing the crustal properties of different planetary bodies.
