Roter Kamm impact crater in Namibia
Namibia --- Roter Kamm, a 5 million year old meteorite crater is raked by wind and sand in the remote diamond mining area of SW Namibia. It is strictly forbidden for anyone to enter the diamond mining district, and this has left this 2.5 km wide and 300m deep impact crater in pristine condition. --- Image by © George Steinmetz/Corbis
