Sometimes these older portals were a lot easier to understand and navigate...

Probably because they was designed by engineers to be functional rather than designers to look good, functionality is not very important. 
And the information you want to find, google it. 
And google if I type in an url I have to add https or the first 10 hits is for sponsors.

Today I took it upon myself to read a scientific article about meteor crater formation, for a world-building project I'm doing. I wanted to know how big of a crater I could have on my planet and still have just a single peak in the center, instead of a ring of mountains.

How curious, I was also wondering today what the minimum size for central peak formation is.

All I know so far is that the threshold size depends on gravity, it's larger for low gravity, and smaller for high gravity.

I found out this week that I live 1 hour away from a meteor crater. Of course I'm making plans to visit it.

Didn't you hear the kaboom?

I might not have evolved ears yet at the time...
