4th largest crater in the worldKaveri Crater is an area identified by scientists in India which appears to have been created by an asteroid hit that occurred around 800 to 550 million years ago. The area lying between Nilgiris and Kodiakanal is in the southern peninsular India. A study indicated that the Kaveri crater has a diameter of 120 kilometres. Because of the size of the crater, Kaveri crater can only be visualized through satellite images. The carter is the fourth largest crater in the world..
