The article I read was titled Mars Crater Gouged by Multiple Impacts and was about "High-resolution images released today by the European Space Agency reveal new details about an unusually elongated crater on Mars that may have been blasted by several objects striking the planet's surface at a shallow angle." The crater is said to be about 78 kilometers long, approximately 25 kilometers across at its widest point, and about 2 kilometers deep. The three deep spots (shown in blue) suggest
that the crater was struck by multiple impacts .I think this is very interesting and proves that comets colliding onto planets can happen. Also if there were life carrying asteroids as Bayani's post discussed this could help prove that life was started that way. But regardless of that I think this is very interesting.
