Cool Crater
And, just 6 miles down the road is Meteor Crater, the world’s best-preserved and most incredible meteorite impact site on the planet! Over 50,000 years ago space and earth collided when a meteor impacted our planet creating one of the most spectacular collisions in history. At 550-feet deep and almost a mile wide in diameter, Meteor Crater was formed in about 10 seconds when the meteorite, traveling at 26,000 mph, crashed into the earth. The force of impact was 150 times greater than the atomic bomb that destroyed Hiroshima and equal to 20 million tons of TNT. In 2020, Meteor Crater was names by Conde Nast Traveler as one of the Seven Wonders of the World!
Learn about our 50-year Lunar Legacy that started in the 1960s, when astronauts preparing for the first moon landing explored the crater’s unique and rugged terrain to help train for what they could expect in space. Enjoy hourly guided rim tours provide a fun, educational and interactive experience to learn about this unique location and there are several observation decks to give visitors the opportunity to study the rock walls within the crater and see the breathtaking desert landscape, along with a fully air-conditioned viewing space inside the Visitor’s Center.
