The ocean floor is famously less explored than the surface of Mars.
, raises the question of whether the crater might be related to Chicxulub in some way.
This data allows geophysicists and geologists to reconstruct the architecture of the rocks and sediments.Among the flat, layered sediments of the, west of Africa, was what appeared to be a large crater, a little under 10 kilometers wide and several hundred meters deep, buried below several hundred meters of sediment.
We did consider other possible processes that could have formed such a crater, such as the collapse of a submarine volcano or a pillar of salt below the seabed. An explosive release of gas from below the surface could also be a cause.Earthquakes, airblast, fireball, and tsunamis Shock waves from the impact would be equivalent to a magnitude 6.5 or 7 earthquake, which would likely trigger underwater landslides around the region. A train of tsunami waves would form.
