Barringer Meteor Crater
The crater impact site of meteorite is a 300,000 ton nickel-iron broke on Earth 50,000 years ago. The meteorite was about 50 meters wide, and the impact created a crater 1200 feet wide and 170 meters deep.
Scientists say that the impact had a force of at least 2.5 megatons of TNT. The explosion was approximately 150 times more powerful than Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs. The authorities have not agreed to the speed at which the meteorite hit the ground. Some say it was at 20 kilometers per second, or about 45,000 miles per hour, while others suggest that the speed was slower at 12.8 kilometers per second or 28.600 miles per hour.
When the engineer Daniel M. Barringer Crater bought mine, proposed a theory that the crater was created by the meteorite impact wrought iron metal. To test the theory, Barringer and his company conducted tests. Tests have confirmed the creation of the author through a violent impact, but can not find the remains of the meteorite Barringer because most celestial body vaporized during its entry into Earth's atmosphere.
Barringer theories have been received with skepticism, but were later accepted by the general scientific society during the 1950s through the efforts of Professor Herman Leroy Fairchild.

These silica forms only appear when quartz rocks receive tremendous shock of the impact of a huge meteorite.
