Researchers from Shanghai and Guangzhou, China have discovered an impact crater. It sits on the side of a hill in Zhaoqing, ...

Nestled on a hillside in Guangdong Province near Zhaoqing City, the Jinlin crater managed to hide in plain sight until ...

The Jinlin crater, measuring 900 meters across, formed during Earth’s current geological epoch. A recently identified and exceptionally well-preserved impact crater is offering scientists new insight ...

Researchers discovered Jinlin crater, measuring nearly 3,000 feet in diameter, in Guangdong Province in China.

A team of researchers has uncovered a remarkably intact impact structure that is now known as the Jinlin crater.

A massive, well-preserved impact crater has been uncovered in Guangdong, revealing the signature of a powerful meteorite ...

Asteroids with different spins and bonding strengths may be responsible for the vast variety of impact craters on Earth, including Arizona's Barringer Crater, new simulations show. When you purchase ...

Computer simulations have revealed that a vast region of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico, may have behaved like a fluid during the formation of the Chicxulub impact crater. Gareth Collins, a ...

The study of impact crater geology and shock metamorphism offers a vital window into the extreme conditions that have shaped planetary surfaces. Impact events, whether from solitary projectiles or ...

The almost 15-million-year-old Nördlinger Ries is an asteroid impact crater filled with lake sediments. Its structure is comparable to the craters currently being explored on Mars. In addition to ...

Most of Mars’ ancient sedimentary rocks by volume are in wind-eroded sedimentary mounds, but the connections between mound form and wind erosion are unclear. We perform mesoscale simulations of ...
