5. Gosses Bluff, Australia

Around 142 million years ago a comet with a width of 22 km hit the mainland Autralia, with a speed of 40 km / sec, can be equated with the explosion of 22,000 megatons of TNT, wow. . . the results are quite impressive that is left has a diameter of 24 km with a depth of 5000 m.

6. Mistastin Lake, Canada

Berlokasi di Labrador, Kanada. Danau Mistastin adalah bentuk dari hasil Meteorit menabrak bumi, hasilnya sebuah lobang dengan diameter 28 km pun menganga di kulit bumi.

The collision occurred approximately 65 million years ago when a comet or asteroid the size of a small town mengahantam (equivalent to 100 teratons of TNT) on Earth and cause mega-tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions around the world.
