This is actually a huge crater (makhtesh in Hebrew), said to be the largest of its kind in the world, measuring 40 km (24 miles) by 9 km (51.2 miles), and resembling a crosebetween the Grand Canyon in America and a giant pitted moonscape.
This crater is reputed to be the largest of that type in the world.
The results, presented in figure 1, indicate that the agencies varied substantially in those dimensions.
