Earth’s Meteor Craters
Kara-Kul – Tajikistan
Located in the country of Tajikistan, near the Afghanistan border, Kara-Kul crater is less than 10 million years old. Since the meteor that created it landed in the Pamir mountains, Kara-Kul has a particularly high elevation -- almost 4 miles (6.4 kilometers) above sea level.
