Meteor Crater Natural Landmark. Meteor Crater is a meteorite impact crater approximately 37 miles (60 km) [...]east of Flagstaff and 18 miles (29 km) west of Winslow in the northern Arizona desert of the United States. Follow route 66 from Flagstaff to Winslow. The Barringer crater, also known as the Meteor Crater, is a typically smaller impact crater in Arizona, USA, with a diameter of 1,200 meters and a depth of over 150 meters. The crater was formed 50,000 years ago by a 50 meter high and 300,000 ton heavy iron meteoroid that came at a speed of 12-13km / s and an energy of 10 megaton TNT and in its appearance is very similar to craters on the Moon, Mercury , on Saturns moon Mimas and on asteroid 4 Vesta. Unlike other impact craters on Earth, this crater has not been subject to major degradation due to the desert climate. The Barringer crater is one of the 182 verified meteor craters on Earth.
