Moon, Asteroid and Canyon

How an Asteroid Hit the Moon and Made Two 'Grand Canyons'
Two immense canyons on the moon's far side that rival Earth's Grand Canyon were produced by a cataclysmic collision nearly four billion years ago, according to new research published on Tuesday. According to the findings,
Asteroid impact carved two Grand Canyon-sized valleys on the Moon in under 10 minutes
Scientists found that an asteroid impact carved two massive canyons on the moon in minutes. High-speed debris helped shape the trenches.
How an ancient asteroid strike carved out 2 grand canyons on the moon
New research shows that when an asteroid slammed into the moon billions of years ago, it carved out a pair of grand canyons on the far side.
Two of the Moon's Grand Canyons Were Formed in Just Ten Violent Minutes, New Study Suggests
It didn’t take long for the moon to get its grand canyons. Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck are two long channels near the lunar south pole. The canyons, each more than 160 miles long and around two miles deep,
Massive lunar canyons formed within minutes, most likely due to asteroid strike
Two canyons on the far side of the moon, each as large as Earth's Grand Canyon, formed within less than 10 minutes, most likely due to a massive impact there 3.8bn years ago. The object and its work are the subjects of scientific speculation in the journal Nature Communications.
