Arandas (crater) km in diameter) they usually have a central peak. The peak is caused by a rebound of the crater floor following the impact. Sometimes craters expose layers that were buried. Rocks from deep underground are tossed onto the surface. Hence, craters can show us what lies deep under the surface. Arandas (crater) Arandas Crater is a crater in the Mare Acidalium quadrangle of Mars, located 42.77° North and 15.17° West. It is 24.76 km in diameter and is named after the town of Arandas in Mexico. South is the scalloped terrain of Cydonia Labyrinthus and further south is Cydonia Colles,
Shiva crater some researchers to have occurred "earlier" than the extinction of the dinosaurs, Shiva's impact was enough to cause the mass extinction by itself. However, other scientists remain unconvinced that the extinction event was caused by multiple impacts, or that the Shiva feature is even in fact a crater. Evidence published in a 2013 "Science" article by Paul R. Renne at the University of California at Berkeley suggests that the Chicxulub crater is in fact within the time frame of when the mass extinction occurred. Shiva crater The Shiva Crater is a geologic structure, which is hypothesized by Sankar Chatterjee and
