Crater's Visitors Center includes the Museum of astrogeology and an Astronaut Hall of Fame, gift Meteor Crater's Museum of astrogeology provides visitors with a casual selfguided http://www.meteorcrater.com/Mcrater.htm

What happens when an irresistible force meets an immovable object? Meteor Crater 50,000 years ago, a huge iron-nickel meteorite, hurtling at about 40,000 miles per hour, struck the rocky plain of Northern Arizona with an explosive force greater than 20 million tons of TNT. The meteorite estimated to have been about 150 feet across and weighing several hundred thousand tons, in less than a few seconds, left a crater 700 feet deep and over 4000 feet across. Large blocks of limestone, some the size of small houses were heaved onto the rim. Flat-lying beds of rock in the crater walls were overturned in fractions of a second and uplifted permanently as much as 150 feet. Today the crater is 550 feet deep, and 2.4 miles in circumference. Twenty football games could be played simultaneously on its floor, while more than two million spectators observed from its sloping sides. In 1902, Daniel Moreau Barringer, a Philadelphia mining engineer, became interested in the site as a potential source for mining iron. He later visited the crater and was convinced that it had been formed by the impact of a large iron meteorite. He further assumed that this body was buried beneath the crater floor. Barringer was correct. The crater was formed by a meteorite impact, but what he did not know was that the meteorite underwent total disintegration during impact through vaporization, melting and fragmentation. In 1903, he formed the Standard Iron Company and had four placer mining claims filed with the federal Government, thus obtaining the patents and ownership of the two square miles containing the crater. Barringer spent the next 26 years attempting to find what he believed would be the giant iron meteorite. Barringer never found what he was looking for, but did eventually prove to the scientific community that the crater was the site of a meteorite impact.

This planet was considered to be the brightest and most beautiful planet or star in the heavens. Other civilizations have named it for their god or goddess of love/war. Earth System Body Description Date of Discovery Discovery Location Discoverer Earth The name Earth comes from the Indo-European base 'er,'which produced the Germanic noun 'ertho,' and ultimately German 'erde,' Dutch 'aarde,' Scandinavian 'jord,' and English 'earth.' Related forms include Greek 'eraze,' meaning 'on the ground,' and Welsh 'erw,' meaning 'a piece of land.' Moon Every civilization has had a name for the satellite of Earth that is known, in English, as the Moon. The Moon is known as Luna in Italian, Latin, and Spanish, as Lune in French, as Mond in German, and as Selene in Greek.

An interview with Carolyn Shoemaker the world's leading and most prolific asteroid/comet discoverer Friday, June 21, 2002 Flagstaff, Arizona 7 minutes, 36 seconds; 9.1 Megs In this interview, Carolyn Shoemaker discusses just how serious a comet/asteroid strike on Earth is, what can be done to prevent strikes, the recent near miss of Asteroid 2002 MN , the spectacular discovery and crash of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 into Jupiter, and how she first got interested in hunting asteroids and comets. Considered the world's leading and most prolific asteroid/comet discoverer, Carolyn has 350 numbered asteroids to her credit (asteroids whose orbits have been determined), 800 unnumbered asteroids (asteroids whose orbits are still being calculated), and 32 comets.

Quote of the Day, Data: Can you recommend a way to counter the effect? Q: Simple. Change the gravitational constant of the universe. LaForge: What? Q: Change the gravitational constant of the universe, thereby altering the mass of the asteroid. LaForge: Redefine gravity. And how am I supposed to do that? Q: You just do it! Ow! Where's that doctor anyway? LaForge: You know, this might work? We can't change the gravitational constant of the universe, but if we wrap a low-level warp field around that moon, we could reduce its gravitational constant. Make it lighter so we can push it!
