electromagnetic activity?

"The crater was featured in the 2005 horror film Wolf Creek, the plot of which included unusual electromagnetic activity in the surrounding area."

How true is this statement?... And would this statement be true for surrounding area's? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthew.wills (talk • contribs) 08:00, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinates

For some reason, the coordinates link is spot on for Google Maps, but about 30 km off for Google Earth. I tried to correct it, but to no avail. Can anyone help? Iantnm (talk) 14:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect photo!?

I'm definitely not an expert for this. But the "Wolfe Creek crater from the air" photo looks very different from what the satellite modes of Google Maps or Bing Maps show (opened those via the coordinates link in the article).

E.g. on the satellite photos there is no sign of the rocky area which is being visible on the right site of the crater on the photo. And the crater on the photo looks like much bigger than 800 meters (if I had to guess, I would say the crater on the picture has about 10 KM of diameter - have a look at the rivers).

As said: I'm no expert on this. Maybe the rocks god just covered by bad weather and mudd...

New age estimate

The following Science Daily article has just appeared . . .

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/11/191121121811.htm

It's based on the following from the University of Portsmouth (UK) . . .

https://www.port.ac.uk/news-events-and-blogs/news/wolfe-creek-crater-younger-than-previously-thought

The new "most-likely" estimate is 120,000 years old, down from 300,000. (In passing, the same technique(s) increase the age estimate of the Barringer aka Meteor Crater by over 10,000 years to 61,000 years old.) {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 2.217.209.178 (talk) 20:24, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Correct weight?

There are two very different weights given in the article, so which one is right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:908:C63:9680:E5FD:3F5B:183D:191C (talk) 07:33, 6 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
