Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Woodleigh is a large meteorite impact crater (astrobleme) in Western Australia, centered on Woodleigh Station east of Shark Bay. A team of four scientists at the Geological Survey of Western Australia and the Australian National University, led by Arthur J. Mory, announced the discovery in the April 15, 2000 issue of Earth and Planetary Science Letters. The crater is not exposed at the surface and therefore its size is uncertain. The original discovery team believe it may be up to 120 kilometres in diameter, but others argue it may be much smaller, with one study suggesting a diameter closer to 60 kilometres. The larger estimate, if correct, would make this the fourth largest confirmed impact structure in the world, and imply a bolide (asteroid or comet) about 5–6 kilometres in diameter.
