Into Perspective
Experts have determined that the asteroid was about 6.8 to 50.3 in diameter and that it smashed into the earth at this very spot. The crater’s diameter appears to be about 93 miles.
To put this into perspective, it is only 1.6 miles shorter than the drive from Philadelphia to New York. Although scientists have shared a lot of information on the crater, they have never revealed whether or not the stones had diamonds inside of them.
