What causes the craters on the moon? This demonstration varies the mass of impactor to see the resultant impact crater and ejecta. Students will complete this activity in a lab. In addition, students will quantify their observations by measuring the crater diameter and depth as well as length of ejecta rays.
Materials and procedure can be found here: http://www.nasa.gov/audience/foreducators/topnav/materials/listbytype/Exploring.the.Moon.html
A visualization of the immediate and long-term environmental effects of the impact event which marked the end of the Cretaceous period, circa 65 mya. Produced by Radek Michalik and David Dolak in collaboration with the Science Institute at Chicago's Columbia College. I DID NOT MAKE THIS.
If such an impact were to occur today, the best strategy for immediate survival would be to be in a different hemisphere when it happened. The kinetic energy of a six-mile-wide rock piling into the earth at 50,000 mph must be conserved, and in order to do this much of this energy is converted to thermal energy - enough to cause third-degree burns from seven hundred and fifty miles away, and to light you on fire if you are much closer. Little to nothing would survive within six hundred miles of the impact zone - note the "scorched earth" appearance of the North American continent at KT + 2 weeks. Other immediate effects include a major earthquake, an airblast capable of leveling forests and buildings, semi-molten ejecta raining from the sky and sparking global wildfires and, once the shockwave reaches the antipodal point of the Earth, massive volcanic eruptions which can last for many thousands of years (such as those that formed the Siberian Traps).
A modern theory states that not one, but several impacts ushered forth the mass extinction to follow, including the impacts which created the Silverpit Crater in the English Channel, and Boltysh Crater in the Ukraine; though neither were as large or devastating as Chicxulub, they are possibly the result of an impact similar to comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 on Jupiter.
The University of Arizona has released a calculator for estimating the effects of small- to large-scale impact events.

Planetary scientists believe that small impacts regularly bombard the Moon, but until recently, they’ve had no way to distinguish new craters from the already pockmarked lunar surface. In 2009, NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) arrived at the Moon and began taking high-resolution photographs. By comparing pictures taken early in the mission with more recent images, the LRO camera team at Arizona State University has discovered more than two-dozen new impact craters – including an 18-meter-wide crater caused by a bright flash on March 17, 2013. LRO is managed by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

Top 10 Biggest Meteor Strikes in History
Our beloved blue planet gets pelted with debris from space all the time but, since most of it burns up or break apart in the atmosphere, it's usually not a problem. Even when one does make it to the ground, they are rarely much larger than a small rock, minimizing the damage they're capable of inflicting.
Then, of course, there is that once-in-an-eon occasion where something very very large makes it through intact, and this can really do some damage. Fortunately, such hits are extremely rare, but they are worth noting, if only to serve as reminders of the power of the stars to undo the normal routine here on Earth, with little more than a few minutes' warning. So where — and when — did these monsters hit? Let's take a look at the geological records, and see.

Earth from Space is presented by Malì Cecere from the ESA Web-TV virtual studios. The one hundred sixty-second edition features a Sentinel-1 satellite image of the Manicouagan Crater in Quebec, Canada. This false-colour image featuring the Manicouagan Crater was captured by the Sentinel-1A satellite on 21 March, 2015. Carved out by an asteroid strike some 214 million years ago, this crater in Quebec, Canada is known to be one of the oldest and largest impact craters on the planet. Experts believe that glaciers have since played a large part in its erosion.
Its concentric structure results from the shock waves transmitted by the impact. These somewhat resemble the rings that form when a pebble is dropped into water. So big and distinct, the crater can easily be observed from space.
The multiple-ring structure is some 100 km across, with the 70 km-diameter inner ring its most prominent feature. The annular Manicouagan Reservoir lake stretches more than 550 km from the source of its longest headstream.
This image was taken by Sentinel-1A, illuminating the landscape with horizontal and vertical radar pulses, from which the artificial colour composite was generated.
Diverse colours highlight variations of land cover. The varying tones of the same colour represent a difference in the land’s condition. Hence, while the blue tones represent bodies of ice and some water, the yellow and orange tones denote ageing vegetation of different types, mixed with patches of snow and ice.
Sentinel-1A satellite has been in orbit since 3 April 2014. It is a polar-orbiting, all-weather, day-and-night radar imaging mission for land and ocean services.

We where contacted by an educator at the UT McDonald Observatory that wanted to use a clip in a lecture to demonstrate meteor impacts so we also added this clip too for them.We dropped a glass ball from 12 feet and recorded the impact @ 5000 FPS.
This is their description:
This slow motion impact video is a good model for how craters are formed on the surface of the moon. When we observe real lunar craters, we see all the below described impact features, but there are a few limitations in this model. This is ok, because you've made a scientific model - all scientific models have limitations, and when we identify those limitations, we have an even better understanding of what is being represented.
The lunar surface is represented by the flour, and darker cocoa on the surface. The white flour and dark cocoa help to distinguish between material at the surface, and displaced material below the surface. The impactor is represented by a glass sphere. At impact a great deal of material is displaced forming interior "crater walls". After impact, an uplifted "crater rim" is seen surrounding the edge of the crater (particularly in the right hand movie). The displaced material from below the surface spreads outward from the impact site. On the moon, we see prominent crater walls, rims and "ejecta", the sub-surface material ejected 1000's of kilometers from the site. Ejected material form "rays" which are bright streaks extending away from the crater.
The limitations of this model:
What isn't seen in the movie are the "central peaks" with are mountains formed in the center of the crater floor, from rapid pressure change during an impact. Central peaks typically form in craters that are larger than 50 km in diameter. The movies don't show the central peaks because you are using an impactor that doesn't disintegrate at impact. To see the central peak in a crater, the water drop movie is wonderful. (A beautiful red drop of water in slow motion)

In the broadest sense, the term impact crater can be applied to any depression, natural or manmade, resulting from the high velocity impact of a projectile with a larger body. In most common usage, the term is used for the approximately circular depression in the surface of a planet, moon or other solid body in the Solar System, formed by the hypervelocity impact of a smaller body with the surface. In contrast to volcanic craters, which result from explosion or internal collapse, impact craters typically have raised rims and floors that are lower in elevation than the surrounding terrain. Impact craters range from small, simple, bowl-shaped depressions to large, complex, multi-ringed impact basins. Meteor Crater is perhaps the best-known example of a small impact crater on the Earth.
Impact craters are the dominant landforms on many solid Solar System objects including the Moon, Mercury, Callisto, Ganymede and most small moons and asteroids. On other planets and moons that experience more-active surface geological processes, such as Earth, Venus, Mars, Europa, Io and Titan, visible impact craters are less common because they become eroded, buried or transformed by tectonics over time. Where such processes have destroyed most of the original crater topography, the terms impact structure or astrobleme are more commonly used. In early literature, before the significance of impact cratering was widely recognised, the terms cryptoexplosion or cryptovolcanic structure were often used to describe what are now recognised as impact-related features on Earth.

Impact Crater Demo
What causes the craters on the moon? This demonstration varies the mass of impactor to see the resultant impact crater and ejecta. Students will complete this activity in a lab. In addition, students will quantify their observations by measuring the crater diameter and depth as well as length of ejecta rays. Materials and procedure can be found here: http://www.nasa.gov/audience/foreducators/topnav/materials/listbytype/Exploring.the.Moon.html -
Chicxulub impact visualization
A visualization of the immediate and long-term environmental effects of the impact event which marked the end of the Cretaceous period, circa 65 mya. Produced by Radek Michalik and David Dolak in collaboration with the Science Institute at Chicago's Columbia College. I DID NOT MAKE THIS. If such an impact were to occur today, the best strategy for immediate survival would be to be in a different hemisphere when it happened. The kinetic energy of a six-mile-wide rock piling into the earth at 50,000 mph must be conserved, and in order to do this much of this energy is converted to thermal energy - enough to cause third-degree burns from seven hundred and fifty miles away, and to light you on fire if you are much closer. Little to nothing would survive within six hundred miles of the impac... -

NASA | New Craters on the Moon
Planetary scientists believe that small impacts regularly bombard the Moon, but until recently, they’ve had no way to distinguish new craters from the already pockmarked lunar surface. In 2009, NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) arrived at the Moon and began taking high-resolution photographs. By comparing pictures taken early in the mission with more recent images, the LRO camera team at Arizona State University has discovered more than two-dozen new impact craters – including an 18-meter-wide crater caused by a bright flash on March 17, 2013. LRO is managed by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

Top 10 Biggest Meteor Strikes in History
Top 10 Biggest Meteor Strikes in History Our beloved blue planet gets pelted with debris from space all the time but, since most of it burns up or break apart in the atmosphere, it's usually not a problem. Even when one does make it to the ground, they are rarely much larger than a small rock, minimizing the damage they're capable of inflicting. Then, of course, there is that once-in-an-eon occasion where something very very large makes it through intact, and this can really do some damage. Fortunately, such hits are extremely rare, but they are worth noting, if only to serve as reminders of the power of the stars to undo the normal routine here on Earth, with little more than a few minutes' warning. So where — and when — did these monsters hit? Let's take a look at the geological recor... -

Simulated Meteor impact in slow motion - UltraSlo
We where contacted by an educator at the UT McDonald Observatory that wanted to use a clip in a lecture to demonstrate meteor impacts so we also added this clip too for them.We dropped a glass ball from 12 feet and recorded the impact @ 5000 FPS. This is their description: This slow motion impact video is a good model for how craters are formed on the surface of the moon. When we observe real lunar craters, we see all the below described impact features, but there are a few limitations in this model. This is ok, because you've made a scientific model - all scientific models have limitations, and when we identify those limitations, we have an even better understanding of what is being represented. The lunar surface is represented by the flour, and darker cocoa on the surface. The ...

If such an impact were to occur today, the best strategy for immediate survival would be to be in a different hemisphere when it happened.

Little to nothing would survive within six hundred miles of the impact zone - note the "scorched earth" appearance of the North American continent at KT + 2 weeks. Other immediate effects include a major earthquake, an airblast capable of leveling forests and buildings, semi-molten ejecta raining from the sky and sparking global wildfires and, once the shockwave reaches the antipodal point of the Earth, massive volcanic eruptions which can last for many thousands of years (such as those that formed the Siberian Traps).
A modern theory states that not one, but several impacts ushered forth the mass extinction to follow, including the impacts which created the Silverpit Crater in the English Channel, and Boltysh Crater in the Ukraine; though neither were as large or devastating as Chicxulub, they are possibly the result of an impact similar to comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 on Jupiter.
The University of Arizona has released a calculator for estimating the effects of small- to large-scale impact events.

Earth from Space is presented by Malì Cecere from the ESA Web-TV virtual studios. The one hundred sixty-second edition features a Sentinel-1 satellite image of the Manicouagan Crater in Quebec, Canada. This false-colour image featuring the Manicouagan Crater was captured by the Sentinel-1A satellite on 21 March, 2015. Carved out by an asteroid strike some 214 million years ago, this crater in Quebec, Canada is known to be one of the oldest and largest impact craters on the planet. Experts believe that glaciers have since played a large part in its erosion.
Its concentric structure results from the shock waves transmitted by the impact. These somewhat resemble the rings that form when a pebble is dropped into water. So big and distinct, the crater can easily be observed from space.
The multiple-ring structure is some 100 km across, with the 70 km-diameter inner ring its most prominent feature. The annular Manicouagan Reservoir lake stretches more than 550 km from the source of its longest headstream.
This image was taken by Sentinel-1A, illuminating the landscape with horizontal and vertical radar pulses, from which the artificial colour composite was generated.
Diverse colours highlight variations of land cover. The varying tones of the same colour represent a difference in the land’s condition. Hence, while the blue tones represent bodies of ice and some water, the yellow and orange tones denote ageing vegetation of different types, mixed with patches of snow and ice.

wn.com/Manicouagan Impact Crater
Earth from Space is presented by Malì Cecere from the ESA Web-TV virtual studios. The one hundred sixty-second edition features a Sentinel-1 satellite image of the Manicouagan Crater in Quebec, Canada. This false-colour image featuring the Manicouagan Crater was captured by the Sentinel-1A satellite on 21 March, 2015. Carved out by an asteroid strike some 214 million years ago, this crater in Quebec, Canada is known to be one of the oldest and largest impact craters on the planet. Experts believe that glaciers have since played a large part in its erosion.
Its concentric structure results from the shock waves transmitted by the impact. These somewhat resemble the rings that form when a pebble is dropped into water. So big and distinct, the crater can easily be observed from space.
The multiple-ring structure is some 100 km across, with the 70 km-diameter inner ring its most prominent feature. The annular Manicouagan Reservoir lake stretches more than 550 km from the source of its longest headstream.
This image was taken by Sentinel-1A, illuminating the landscape with horizontal and vertical radar pulses, from which the artificial colour composite was generated.
Diverse colours highlight variations of land cover. The varying tones of the same colour represent a difference in the land’s condition. Hence, while the blue tones represent bodies of ice and some water, the yellow and orange tones denote ageing vegetation of different types, mixed with patches of snow and ice.

We where contacted by an educator at the UT McDonald Observatory that wanted to use a clip in a lecture to demonstrate meteor impacts so we also added this clip too for them.We dropped a glass ball from 12 feet and recorded the impact @ 5000 FPS.
This is their description:
This slow motion impact video is a good model for how craters are formed on the surface of the moon. When we observe real lunar craters, we see all the below described impact features, but there are a few limitations in this model. This is ok, because you've made a scientific model - all scientific models have limitations, and when we identify those limitations, we have an even better understanding of what is being represented.
The lunar surface is represented by the flour, and darker cocoa on the surface. The white flour and dark cocoa help to distinguish between material at the surface, and displaced material below the surface. The impactor is represented by a glass sphere. At impact a great deal of material is displaced forming interior "crater walls". After impact, an uplifted "crater rim" is seen surrounding the edge of the crater (particularly in the right hand movie). The displaced material from below the surface spreads outward from the impact site. On the moon, we see prominent crater walls, rims and "ejecta", the sub-surface material ejected 1000's of kilometers from the site. Ejected material form "rays" which are bright streaks extending away from the crater.
The limitations of this model:
What isn't seen in the movie are the "central peaks" with are mountains formed in the center of the crater floor, from rapid pressure change during an impact. Central peaks typically form in craters that are larger than 50 km in diameter. The movies don't show the central peaks because you are using an impactor that doesn't disintegrate at impact. To see the central peak in a crater, the water drop movie is wonderful. (A beautiful red drop of water in slow motion)

Super Comet - The longest night 65 million years ago the dinosaurs were wiped out by a gigantic asteroid. We could soon be next. We don't know when it will happen or where the asteroid will strike. We only know that it will happen - sometime - perhaps in 1000 years' time or perhaps tomorrow. Will it be the end of mankind? Through the eyes of a young astronomer we experience this catastrophic event. On discovering the asteroid on collision course with Earth, he tries to give a warning, but in vain. He survives, but this is just the beginning. The impact results in an eclipse of the sun leading to a global winter and the extinction of many life-forms. This documentary will depict the scientific background to the catastrophe, with all its consequences for mankind and the natural world. Thi... -

65 million years ago the dinosaurs were wiped out by a gigantic asteroid. We could soon be next. We don't know when it will happen or where the asteroid will strike. We only know that it will happen - sometime - perhaps in 1000 years' time or perhaps tomorrow. Will it be the end of mankind?
Through the eyes of a young astronomer we experience this catastrophic event. On discovering the asteroid on collision course with Earth, he tries to give a warning, but in vain. He survives, but this is just the beginning. The impact results in an eclipse of the sun leading to a global winter and the extinction of many life-forms.
This documentary will depict the scientific background to the catastrophe, with all its consequences for mankind and the natural world. This is the end of an era, but also the beginning of a new one - the age of the conquerors.
Part 1
Sixty-five million years ago, a comet hit the earth, putting an end to life as it then was. Now a comet is about to hit the earth again. In the dramatised part of this episode, Fernando Martinez, a Mexican who works in Houston, Texas, sets off home to be with his family, the Vaton family in France seeks shelter, and the Baka pygmy tribesmen continue to hunt, unaware of the impending disaster. Astrophysicist Noah Boyle, and computer scientist Shiang Yatan, remain at the observation centre in Hawaii to try to find out exactly when the comet will hit.
Part 2
An asteroid hits the earth in the Mexican province of Yucatan in 2007. The impact causes the entire planet to burst into flames. Humankind is catapulted into a very dark age and this re-enacted doco-drama describes what happens 5, 10, 30, 60 and 80 days and lastly 4 months after the impact. Most life is extinguished within hundreds of kilometres of the crater. The entire earth sinks into darkness. Paris, New York, Hawaii are all in complete darkness and all plant life dies out as a result of the lack of sunlight. Temperatures fall much below anything ever experienced before. Many survivors are left absolutely alone and must fend for themselves.
