Did you know that approximately 500 meteorites hit the earth every year? The majority of them get burned and dissolved in the ozone layer, and what little remains fall to the earth in tiny light-weight bits. The bigger ones, heavy enough to leave a mark, only come around in cycles of about 5,200 years.
These are the ones that create major events, such as earthquakes and tsunamis, once they impact the earth. They leave behind a scar on the face of the earth - something we call a crater. The earth, the moon, and other planets are full of craters gathered over the eons too. On earth, some of them even turned into lakes! Here we bring you a list of the 10 most impressive and massive craters on earth.
