Opinion: The massive Vredefort structure was always referred to as the Vredefort Dome, but after many years of scientific debate it was established that it is a crater caused by an impact from an asteroid from outer space.

The queue to the doctor’s surgery was long and hot. Dulcy held her granny’s hand as they waited. Once a month the granny would make the journey from the village of Tladistad to Temba township in Hammanskraal to collect her hypertension medication.
“One day, when I was about six years old, my granny said to me, ‘You must become a doctor so I don’t need to stand for such a long time.’ And that was it. From that day on, all I wanted was to study medicine. Throughout school my teachers knew. They even called me doctor – because that’s all I talked about.”
Top 10 Largest Impact Structures on Earth
There are hundreds of impact craters found around the world, but less than 50 that are considered Large (over 20km in diameter). As an example, one of the most well-known and best preserved craters is Barringer crater in Arizona (35°2′N 111°1′W), which is just over 1km in diameter, and was created by a nickle-iron meteor, which was about 50m (54yards). This is a minuscule size compared to the large craters of the world, and in this list you can read up on the very biggest of the big. I have included coordinates, so feel free to follow along on Google earth. Don’t be disappointed if you do not see the full effect of the crater on Google earth, as most of these large craters have eroded away, and can only be seen through density scanners and specialized photos.
