••"Meteorite Impact Craters on Earth" poster is a new full-size, fully revised color poster that provides a great introduction to impact science.
This poster features a table with all new information about the size, location, types of materials found and features of 177 verified crateres discovered on Earth (copyright 2008)
•The world map shows all 177 craters plotted geographically with the names of the craters, latitude and longitude and keyed to a data table.
•There are pictures and text about some of the amazing rock and mineral types that are created ONLY by hypervelocity impacts.
•A sectional graphic shows how craters are formed when the meteorite/asteriod/comet hits the ground, and the types of crater they produce.
•A section is devoted to Gene Shoemaker, considered to be the "father of impact science."
•A handy timeline graph on the bottom of the poster shows the dating of 6 extinction events and their titles.
•The poster comes with a 4 page in-color information sheet with photos of meteorites and interesting review questions and answers.
(The title includes: Meteorite/Asteriod/Comet Craters on the Earth as many of these impact sites have yet to be determined as to which of the three impactors definitely created the crater).
