Location: Al Kufrah, Libya
Coordinates: 22.099 N 23.795 E

Located in south-eastern Libya in the Sahara Desert, lies two impact craters of 10km and 6.8km diameter respectively. A single meteor must have broken up and disintegrated when entering the atmosphere, and the largest two pieces survived to impact the surface.
