Saw this, though it was cool. But of course I have questions. ;) http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/LRO/multimedia/lroimages/lroc-20100322-apollo13booster.html How fast was it going upon impact? Why is the crater only 30 meters in diameter, while the booster was almost that long? Was the booster

Re: [meteorite-list] Apollo 13's Booster Impact

This probably isn't even a crater in the usual sense, but more of an impact pit. From low lunar orbit, where the Apollo craft were inserted, the impact speed will be less than 2600 m/s- probably not even close to what would be considered hypervelocity in the sense it is used for cratering,

Re: [meteorite-list] No nickel-free iron meteorites
