Meteor Crater

I had a great chance to visit the Meteor Crater Center(Northern Arizona). The tour to Visitor Center provided me with an educational touch to the Grand Canyon trip.
The Meteor Crater is over 4,000 feet across, and 550 feet deep, and the observation telescopes allow you a close up look at points of interest in the crater.A 1,406 pound meteorite fragment, the largest ever found in the area, is on display for visitors to view and touch. The former Museum of Astro-geology has been remodeled and includes the displays on the never-ending process of impacts and collisions in our solar system. The Interactive Learning Center has twenty-four exciting exhibits, making it the most extensive and informative museum of its type on planet earth. There are two interactive computer displays that contain high-tech graphics on space, meteorites and asteroids, the solar system, and the Shoemaker-Levy 9 comet that impacted Jupiter. I could also see the fossils for the first time in my life.
