Impact Cratering Links

Great presentation by Peter Malinski on Impact Craters. He passed along a few interesting websites to further explore the science of Impact Cratering:


  1. http://www.passc.net/EarthImpactDatabase/ This is the website that contains a database for all the confirmed impact structures on Earth currently. It's a great resource if anybody wants to see if a crater is exposed and find specific locations.

  2. https://www.aipg-ohio.org/payment.php This website is for a field trip on June 16th hosted by AIPG. This one is hosted by my acquaintance Mark Baranoski and should be a good trip if anybody is interested

  3. https://quickmap.lroc.asu.edu/ This website is an overlay of the Moon using up-to-date spatial data and is easy to use.  Anybody can surf around and zoom in to find incredible details of the lunar surface and can be fun to explore

  4. https://jmars.asu.edu/ This website is the one used by most academics and NASA scientists to explore Mars.  It has all mission data (Thermal, Visual, Gravity, etc.) and can be a great tool for exploring Mars.  It does have a learning curve, but for hobbyists I would definitely recommend it.  The things you can explore on the Martian surface are absolutely interesting!

### Thank you Peter for the great presentation and for the links! ###
