How an ancient asteroid strike carved out 2 grand canyons on the moon
New research shows that when an asteroid slammed into the moon billions of years ago, it carved out a pair of grand canyons on the far side.
Asteroid impact carved two Grand Canyon-sized valleys on the Moon in under 10 minutes
Scientists found that an asteroid impact carved two massive canyons on the moon in minutes. High-speed debris helped shape the trenches.
Asteroid hits the Moon, forms massive canyons in just 10 minutes— How did it happen?
This research helps us understand the violent nature of cosmic collisions and their role in shaping planetary landscapes. By studying these impacts, we can learn more about how the Moon’s surface was formed and how similar events may have influenced Earth’s history as well.
Two of the Moon's Grand Canyons Were Formed in Just Ten Violent Minutes, New Study Suggests
It didn’t take long for the moon to get its grand canyons. Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck are two long channels near the lunar south pole. The canyons, each more than 160 miles long and around two miles deep,
Massive lunar canyons formed within minutes, most likely due to asteroid strike
Two canyons on the far side of the moon, each as large as Earth's Grand Canyon, formed within less than 10 minutes, most likely due to a massive impact there 3.8bn years ago. The object and its work are the subjects of scientific speculation in the journal Nature Communications.
