Giant Meteorite Crater Bigger Than Paris Found Beneath Greenland's Ice Sheet

A giant crater that was formed when a meteorite smashed into Earth, has been uncovered deep below Greenland's ice sheets, according to the Independent.co.uk

The 31-kilometre-wide cavity was discovered by an international team of scientists who believe it was caused by a "rare" meteorite that struck Earth as recently as 12,000 years ago.
