Unveiling Uhackatik: A 390-Million-Year-Old Meteorite Crater Rewrites Earth's Ancient History
A chance discovery by an amateur astronomer led to the provisional confirmation of a massive 390-million-year-old meteorite impact crater in Quebec, Canada. Named Uhackatik, this 25-kilometer-wide feature represents one of the largest discoveries of its kind in recent years. Its well-preserved geological evidence offers critical insights into ancient cosmic events and is proving invaluable for planetary geologists, including those preparing Artemis astronauts for future lunar missions.
