What’s new – You could call Karratha Crater 1-in-94 million. That’s about how many craters dot the surface of Mars, according to a crater-hunting algorithm Lagain and his colleagues trained.

The scientists named the crater Karratha after the Australian mining town where many of Earth's oldest rocks have been found. They published their findings July 12 in the journal Nature ...

Karratha Crater was once home to the Black Beauty Martian meteorite. NASA MRO. A study published on Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications details the work of a machine learning algorithm ...

The team named the crater on Mars Karratha, after a city in western Australia known for its preserved rock formations and where some of Earth's oldest rocks are found, ...

Black Beauty, also known as NWA 7034, was ejected into space when an asteroid created the six-mile-wide Karratha Crater, report experts at Curtin University in Perth, Australia.

Karratha Crater on Mars(Picture: NASA MRO /SWNS) The study published in the journal Nature Communications offers never-before-known details about Black Beauty, known scientifically as NWA 7034.

It produced a huge crater and launched a fresh meteorite made of ancient Martian crust into space, ... The 10-kilometer-wide Karratha crater, according to the researchers, ...

These ancient fragments, along with the rest of NWA 7034, were later blasted off Mars by a subsequent impact 5 million to 10 million years ago, which formed Karratha crater. "The origin of Martian ...
