The spectacular Kara-Kul structure is readily apparent in this image. Partly filled by the 25-kilometer (16-mile) diameter Kara-Kul Lake, it is located at 3,900 meters (12,900 feet) above sea level in the Pamir Mountain Range near the Afghan border. Only recently have impact shock features been found in local breccias and cataclastic rocks.
