The single largest explosion crater
The single largest explosion crater on the planet was not formed through weapons testing or warfare. Rather, it was formed through a natural process, a large volcanic eruption. The crater in question measures more than 3 miles or 5 kilometers wide and is located in a remote section of western Alaska. #short #shorts #crater #geology
