Chinese scientists have discovered a meteorite crater on a mountain ridge in Hailin City, located in the northeastern Heilongjiang Province, for the first time. This elliptical, bowl-shaped crater spans 1,360 meters in diameter. The discovery, published in the academic journal 'Matter and Radiation at Extremes,' is significant as it enriches human understanding of planetary collision history and provides new insights into crater formation mechanisms. Meteorite craters are extremely rare in China, making this finding particularly noteworthy.
