A meteor that crashed to Earth 800,000 years ago left a crater that eluded detection.
Scientists led by Professor Kerry Sieh, from the Earth Observatory of Singapore, are poring over complex data. They’re hunting for the impact crater of a massive meteorite that slammed into the Earth’s surface around 800,000 years ago. Frustratingly, the crater’s location has eluded scientists for over a century. But Sieh and his researchers believe they finally have an answer to this enduring mystery.
