Impact craters that were made in the past are also a part of our history.
Having read an entry at a blog by Aeneas While the earth rumbles I began looking for craters and found that
The Planetary and Space Science Centre
Department of Geology
University of New Brunswick
2 Bailey Drive
Fredericton
New Brunswick E3B 5A3
Canada
has as Web site where one can go and see impact craters:
_Planetary and Space Science Centre | UNB
There is one page for the main Continents. If one clicks for example Asia, a page opens with a map and some red spots. By cliking the red spot a new page opens with information of location and a picture. Looking at these old craters makes one keenly aware of what can happen in the future.
The link to the above I found on this site: _MethodShop
It describes a person who looked at Google Earth and found two new impact craters. Maybe we can find some more.
