Australian crater

-

In this false-colour image taken by the Copernicus Sentinel-2A satellite, we can see the Gosses Bluff crater in Australia’s Northern Territory. The crater is visible in the left centre of the image and is about 22km in diameter. It was most likely formed 140 million years ago by the impact of a large comet or meteorite slamming into the surface of Earth.
