Asteroid collision carved 2 massive 'grand canyons'

Asteroid impact on moon blasted two grand canyons in 10 minutes
The Grand Canyon in Arizona is one of Earth's natural wonders, carved out over millions of years by the gradual erosion power of the Colorado River. Close to the moon's south pole are two canyons each comparable in size to the Grand Canyon that were born in a much different process.
How an Asteroid Hit the Moon and Made Two 'Grand Canyons'
Two immense canyons on the moon's far side that rival Earth's Grand Canyon were produced by a cataclysmic collision nearly four billion years ago, according to new research published on Tuesday. According to the findings,
How an ancient asteroid strike carved out 2 grand canyons on the moon
New research shows that when an asteroid slammed into the moon billions of years ago, it carved out a pair of grand canyons on the far side.
Asteroid hits the Moon, forms massive canyons in just 10 minutes— How did it happen?
This research helps us understand the violent nature of cosmic collisions and their role in shaping planetary landscapes. By studying these impacts, we can learn more about how the Moon’s surface was formed and how similar events may have influenced Earth’s history as well.
Two Grand Canyon-size valleys on the far side of the moon formed within 10 minutes, scientists say
Two Grand Canyon-size features on the far side of the moon were likely formed in about 10 minutes after an unknown object slammed into the moon 3.8 billion years ago.
