KNOWING FROM A HOLE IN THE GROUND

I was here.

Inside Barringer Meteor Crater

I love the beam of sun on the impact zone.

The photo shown on the site does not do the hole justice. It is huge.

It is a fascinating experience to stand there and take it all in.

There aren't many of these around. Most meteroites are too small and the big ones, well, the really big ones did their job so that there was nothing much left.

This is a nice, neat hole without a cataclysmic result and we can all go look at it.

Here is what it looks like from far above.
