Nördlinger Ries impact structure

	«	All major lunar craters are of impact origin, including Copernicus (center) or Eratosthenes (upper right). The much smaller crater on the lower edge of the photo above (lower left of Copernicus) has a diameter of 25 kilometres and is, therefore, of similar size as the Nördlinger Ries.	»
