History of science and technology in Mexico world. There are almost half a million (451,000) students enrolled in electronics engineering programs. There is coordinated push to turn transition Mexico into an innovation economy. Start up, business incubators like Technology Hub in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico have made their missions emboldening the entrepreneurial and start up climate in Mexico. The Chicxulub crater is an impact crater buried underneath the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. The crater was discovered by Antonio Camargo and Glen Penfield, geophysicists who had been looking for petroleum in the Yucatán during the late 1970s.

Impact crater Impact crater An impact crater is an approximately circular depression in the surface of a planet, moon, or other solid body in the Solar System or elsewhere, formed by the hypervelocity impact of a smaller body. In contrast to volcanic craters, which result from explosion or internal collapse, impact craters typically have raised rims and floors that are lower in elevation than the surrounding terrain. Although Meteor Crater is perhaps the best-known example of a small impact crater on Earth, impact craters range from small, simple, bowl-shaped depressions to large, complex, multi-ringed impact basins. Impact craters are the dominant geographic
