Meteorite impact Ries Crater, suevite, impactite, breccia great collections RS 0018 size 50x36x9mm. W 17,85g. meteorite impact crater Rise Suevite Age: 15.1 ± 0.1 Ma Country: Germany D = 24 km, Age = 15.1 ± 0.1 Certificate IMCA 4167 The Ries is the type locality for suevite, an allochthonous, polymict breccia, which is generally of fundamental importance for impact crater studies on Earth and Mars. Suevite forms a continuous (?) layer within the central crater (crater suevite) and discontinuous deposits (outer suevite) on the inner ring and on the continuous ejecta blanket (Bunte breccia). Some observations suggest that the discontinuous patches of the outer suevite represent a primary feature and are not the result of later erosion The term “suevite” has been applied to various impact melt-bearing breccias found in different stratigraphic settings within terrestrial impact craters. Suevite was coined initially for impact glass-bearing breccias from the Ries impact structure, Germany, which is the type locality. Various working hypotheses have been proposed to account for the formation of the Ries suevite deposits over the past several decades, with the most recent being molten-fuel-coolant interaction (MFCI) between an impact melt pool and water. This mechanism is also the working hypothesis for the origin of the bulk of the Onaping

A large volcanic depression zone caused by erosion of two ridges and subsequent collapse that formed the valley.

The Ramon Crater in Israel’s Negev Desert is the world’s largest erosion crater or makhtesh. A landform unique to Israel’s Negev and Egypt’s Sinai deserts’, a makhtesh is a large erosion cirque, created 220 million years ago when oceans covered the area (the word crater is therefore a misleading translation of Hebrew to English.) The Ramon Crater measures 40km in length and between 2 and 10km in width, shaped like a long heart, and forms Israel’s largest national park, the Ramon Nature Reserve. .: 175 gsm fine art paper .: Multiple sizes .: Matte finish .: For indoor use .: NB!

Geology of the Moon by Eleanor Lutz The Moon Glowing with reflected sunlight, the Moon is our nearest celestial neighbor and the brightest object in the night sky. The Moon always faces its Near Side towards the Earth, and the center of the Near Side is shown at the center of this geologic map.  The Moon is covered with hundreds of craters formed by meteorites impacting the surface. Because the Moon has no significant atmosphere, there is little wind erosion to obscure the craters once they form. Several huge impacts have created large geologic features still visible today, including the Australe basin on the Southern hemisphere, the Orientale basin on the Southern Far Side, and the Nectaris basin on the Southern Near Side.  Apollo missions and the Moon From the Apollo missions carrying people to the Moon, we know that the lunar surface is covered by a layer of fine dust. This dust was formed over billions of years by repeated meteorite impacts breaking up the surface rock into tiny particles. When a projectile strikes the Moon, it impacts at a tremendously high speed that vaporizes the meteorite and sends a shock wave through the Moon that fractures the ground. The explosion can be similar to a nuclear bomb detonated at ground level.  Ideal for Moon enthusiasts, educators, and anyone with a passion for lunar studies, this poster not only serves as a captivating wall art piece but also as a comprehensive educational tool that invites viewers to unravel the mysteries locked in the lunar terrain.
