A team of astronomers, who have been trying to track the origin of the near-Earth asteroid Kamo'oalewa, are now proposing a theory which hints that it was most likely part of the Moon.

This asteroid orbits the Sun, left a massive crater on Moon, but without ever hitting it

In a stunning discovery, a group of scientists working at NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL) in California found that a single meteorite led to the creation of two billion craters on the Martian surface.

Scientists in a new discovery have suggested that a 1.8-kilometre-wide depression, which is called Luna structure, may have been created by the impact of the largest meteorite to have hit Earth in the last 50,000 years.

New simulations have revealed that the distinctive shapes of impact craters on Earth, such as Arizona's Barringer Crater, may have been influenced by asteroids with curveball-like spin and loose bonding strengths.

Scientists have pinpointed the location of the place where an asteroid hit Earth approximately 750,000 years ago. In a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the planetary scientists released evidence showing that the location of impact crater they have been seeking for decades is on the Bolaven Plateau in southern Laos.
