Wolfe Creek Crater, located in Western Australia, is one of the world's best-preserved meteorite impact sites, measuring about 875 meters in diameter. It was formed approximately 300,000 years ago when a nickel-iron meteorite, estimated to be about 50,000 tons, struck the Earth at high speed. The crater is surrounded by a unique desert landscape that supports diverse flora and fauna. Additionally, the site has gained attention as a filming location for the Horror film "Wolf Creek," which has contributed to its notoriety.
