Just 114 miles from the recently-discovered Hiawatha impact crater under the ice of northwest Greenland, lies a possible
second impact crater. The 22.7-mile-wide feature would be the second crater found under an ice sheet, and if confirmed,
would be the 22nd-largest crater on Earth. Image credit: NASAs Goddard Space Flight Center / Jefferson Beck

Trump’s fault.
If not his fault, then Bush’s fault.

” Hiawatha impact crater “ Do they mean ‘lie-a-watha’ in reference to princess running beaver?

We live in a great celestial shooting gallery. We are the target.

Could be, certainly could be a second impact crater.

19.2 and 22.7 miles wide... I can’t even begin to imagine what damage those two meteorites would do to whatever was living on earth, way back then.

Considering the Chicxulub (suspected dinosaur killer 65mya) impact was by a body somewhere between 7 and 50 KM diameter, and said impactor’s crater is over 150 kilometres (93 miles) in diameter...
I doubt that it was more than a couple of bad years weather for the rest of the planet. For those in the immediate area, however, it was likely pretty ugly for a long while!

#2. It’s nobody’s FAULT. It is a crater. There is a difference.
A “fault” is what is going to do justice to the commies in California when it takes SF and LA into the Mariannas Trench, for ever.
To: MadMax, the Grinning Reaper
My comment just went right over your head.
It is their fault because everything in the world that is bad must be the fault of some hated Republican President.

Sorry if your comment went over my head. I was diving under the glaciers looking for Judge Crater too.
Since there are two large craters under the glaciers, they must be somebody’s FAULT. /sarc
