Ten Impact Craters Seen from Space | European Space Agency

Ten Impact Craters Seen from Space | European Space Agency

 

Have you ever wondered what an impact crater looks like from space? Today, we’re counting down examples of our favorite impact craters here on Earth—captured by Earth-observing satellites.

Craters are inevitably part of being a rocky planet. They occur on every planetary body in our solar system—no matter the size. By studying impact craters and the meteorites that cause them, we can learn more about the processes and geology that shape our entire solar system.
