“…This classification, based on the study of craters exposed by erosion, also seems to apply to the morphology of fresh craters revealed by images of the surfaces of other planets and satellites. Data sets on terrestrial and planetary craters are highly complementary: Due to erosion, geophysical investigations, and direct drilling, the subsurface structure of many terrestrial craters can be explored in detail, while the surface morphology is often displayed in exquisite detail by images of fresh craters on the surfaces of other planets or satellites (for a brief review, see Wright et al, 2013). Simple craters are circular, bowl-shaped depressions with raised rims and approximately parabolic interior profiles.…”

“…En el campo de las ciencias planetarias, la fotogeología, o análisis de imágenes, se ha utilizado para buscar la distintiva estructura circular de un cráter de impacto, asimismo de terrazas y picos centrales dentro de los cráteres grandes y complejos (Wright et al, 2013). Varias estructuras de impacto se han encontrado con este método (Folco et al, 2010), (Folco et al, 2011).…”

“…Esta técnica fotogeológica por sí sola no puede proporcionar una evidencia definitiva para determinar si es una estructura circular producto del impacto de un asteroide, ya que muchas estructuras circulares pueden estar formadas por otros procesos geológicos como, por ejemplo; las dolinas, formaciones kársticas, diapiros salinos y volcanes (Wright et al, 2013). Es necesario el análisis litológico para la identificación de un cráter de impacto; mediante el reconocimiento de una serie de impactitas características y varios efectos producto del metamorfismo de impacto; como por ejemplo los PDFs (Planar Deformation Features), características de deformación planar y la presencia de conos astillados en las rocas afectadas por impacto.…”

“…However, it does not mean no characteristic trace is still recognizable. May be several features of the collision remnant left in the shape of a semi-circle; buried basin; impactite such as melted rock, impact breccia, or shattered rock; and radioactive traces, such as iridium and chromium [8]. Impactite cannot found quickly, since its occurrence depends on the size of meteorite, velocity, and the impacted rock [9].…”
