Meteoroid Fragmentation in the Martian Atmosphere and the Formation of Crater Clusters

Meteoroid Fragmentation in the Martian Atmosphere and the Formation of Crater Clusters

The current rate of small impacts on Mars is informed by more than one thousand impact sites formed in the last 20 years, detected in images of the martian surface. More than half of these impacts produced a cluster of small craters formed by fragmentation of the meteoroid in the martian atmosphere....
