Moon, Asteroid and Grand Canyon

How an Asteroid Hit the Moon and Made Two 'Grand Canyons'
Two immense canyons on the moon's far side that rival Earth's Grand Canyon were produced by a cataclysmic collision nearly four billion years ago, according to new research published on Tuesday. According to the findings,
Ancient Asteroid Smashed Into The Moon Carving Out Grand Canyon-Sized Craters, Study Says
Researches have determined that ejecta from an ancient asteroid. strike carved out the grand canyons (Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck) in less than 10 minutes.
The Moon has 2 Grand Canyons carved by an ancient asteroid strike
The incoming object created an impact basin and sent streams of rocks hurtling like missiles, NASA said. Within minutes, two canyons comparable in size to Arizona's Grand Canyon were formed.
Asteroid impact on moon blasted two grand canyons in 10 seconds
The Grand Canyon in Arizona is one of Earth's natural wonders, carved out over millions of years by the gradual erosion power of the Colorado River. Close to the moon's south pole are two canyons each comparable in size to the Grand Canyon that were born in a much different process.
A meteorite carved two valleys as deep as the Grand Canyon on the Moon in just 10 minutes
The gigantic cataclysm, which released energy 130 times more powerful than the detonation of the entire world’s atomic arsenal, will facilitate the research of astronauts scheduled for a lunar landing
Two Grand Canyon-size valleys on the far side of the moon formed within 10 minutes, scientists say
Two Grand Canyon-size features on the far side of the moon were likely formed in about 10 minutes after an unknown object slammed into the moon 3.8 billion years ago.
Asteroid collision formed huge craters on Moon within minutes
A new study suggests the craters were dug out by rocky debris after the lunar surface was struck around 3.8 billion years ago. Find out more here.
The Moon’s epic ‘grand canyons’ were gouged out in 10 minutes by an asteroid strike
The vast valleys of Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck demonstrate the incredible forces that shaped the face of the Moon.
Asteroid blast on the moon sculpted giant canyons in 10 seconds, revealing ancient lunar history
The moon's Schrödinger impact basin near the south pole holds two grand canyons formed by an enormous asteroid collision 3.8 billion years ago. Unlike
The moon's grand canyons were carved in the blink of an eye
The Earth's Grand Canyon took millions of years to carve, but the moon's grand canyons took about ten minutes.
Asteroid collision carved 2 massive ‘grand canyons’ on moon in 10 minutes
The study suggests the canyons in “Schrodinger impact basin” were carved in under 10 minutes by debris from an asteroid or comet impact 3.8 billion years ago.
