WHAT DOES A 50,000 YEAR OLD HOLE IN THE GROUND LOOK LIKE?
HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT A MASSIVE 50,000 YEAR-OLD-HOLE-IN-THE-GROUND LOOKS LIKE?
Sometimes Massive Outer Space rocks hit planet earth!
This is an interesting family story...
In the early 1900’s, Daniel Moreau Barringer, my adoptive grandfather and a well-known geologist, discovered this gigantic hole, 1400 feet across and 570 feet deep. He was the first in history to proclaim the sight an impact crater.
This massive rock from outer space had plunged through earth’s atmosphere at approximately 26,000 mph and crashed into what is now central Arizona hitting earth 50,000 years ago.
My grandfather purchased the site believing it could be a lucrative place to mine for iron. No iron was found due to the impact energy estimated at approximately 10 megatons of TNT causing the meteorite to vaporize on impact.
Upon grandfather’s death in 1929, his eight children formed the Barringer Crater Company. The Crater remains owned by our family to this day. Today it is a popular tourist attract 35 miles east of Flagstaff, Arizona.
Meteor Crater is known as the best-preserved impact crater sites in the entire world. There is scale model of it in the Natural History Museum, New York City.
