Earth’s Oldest Meteorite Crater Discovered in Australia! 🌍

 Earth’s Oldest Meteorite Crater Discovered in Australia! 🌍 Exciting news from Down Under! Researchers have found Earth’s oldest meteorite crater, dating back an astonishing 3.5 billion years. Located in Australia’s Pilbara region, this discovery rewrites our understanding of Earth’s early history and the evolution of life. 




The massive impact, evidenced by shatter cones, created a 62-mile-wide crater and may have played a significant role in shaping the planet's crust and fostering environments conducive to microbial life.


Tim Johnson, a professor at Curtin University, explains that the intense pressure from the impact generated unique geological formations. This discovery not only provides insight into early Earth but also highlights the scarcity of ancient craters due to erosion and subduction over billions of years. 


Analyzing this event helps scientists better understand continental evolution and life’s development on Earth.


Chris Kirkland, co-lead author of the study, emphasizes the importance of such impacts in shaping early Earth's geology. The energy from the impact could have contributed to the formation of large continental precursors known as cratons. 


This find may be just one of many ancient impacts that influenced Earth’s geological and biological history.

From Viral Fame to Legal Trouble! College Student Lily Stewart Arrested Again! 🚨

From Viral Fame to Legal Trouble! College Student Lily Stewart Arrested Again! 🚨 Lily Stewart, the University of Georgia student whose smiling mugshot turned her into an internet sensation, is back in the spotlight—but not for the reasons she’d hoped. Just weeks after her first arrest, Stewart has been taken into custody again, facing more serious charges of obstruction of a law enforcement officer and loitering or prowling. Unlike her initial run-in with the law, where people joked about her confident smirk, this second arrest is raising eyebrows for all the wrong reasons. According to reports, she was booked early in the morning on March 23, posting a $4,000 bond just hours later. While details remain scarce, obstruction of an officer suggests she may have actively resisted law enforcement, while loitering charges often hint at suspicious or unlawful behavior. This marks a stark contrast from her first arrest on March 8, when she was caught speeding on her way to a fraternity part...
