“The crater, to me, is like Alabama’s Disney Land, and it could be, because people come here from all over the world to see it,” said Tankersley. “This is the best preserved marine impact crater in the world. Now most of us don’t know what that means, but the fact is, when the meteor hit, this was ocean. So, it had to go through about 100 feet of water when it hit, and still made rims that, at the time were about twice the size as they are now.”
