on Earth's Moon is a multi-ringed basin created by an impactor perhaps 60 kilometres (40 mi) in diameter traveling at 14 kilometres per second (9 mi/s), or about 52,100 kilometres per hour (32,400 mph)

Multi-ring basins are some of the largest, oldest, rarest and least understood of impact craters. There are various theories to explain the formation of multi-ringed basins, however there is currently no consensus.

In extremely large collisions, following the impact the rebound of the surface can obliterate any trace of the initial impact point. Usually, a peak ring crater has a high structure with a
