Expeditions

Journeys to meteorite impact craters and to the places where meteorites fell. Every expedition opens on its own page with photos and the full story.

An almost perfectly round crater in the middle of a plain, a salty lake, temples of different times and peacocks in the trees.

My first expedition: ten days in the tundra near the Arctic Circle, three specimens dug out of the ground, and reindeer watching us.

The “valley of death” in the steppe: searching for impact melt rocks, lechatelierite and tektites.

A crater lake in Karelia, about 700 million years old.
