There are plenty of famous meteors, to know which one specifically you are speaking about, I would need a name. The most famous is probably the one that many believe killed all the dinosaurs. This meteor is estimated to be about 6 miles wide, and created a crater about 110 miles across. Many believe that the Chicxulub Crater in Yucatan, Mexico is this meteor.

∙ 14y ago"Meteor" is the glowing streak of light caused by a space rock heating up in the Earth's atmosphere. Meteors are hardly ever "famous" - they're gone in a second or two.
A "meteorite" is the rock after it falls to Earth, IF it survives the passage through the atmosphere.
Perhaps you are thinking of the Barringer Meteor Crater, an enormous hole in the ground near Winslow, Arizona, caused when a meteor smashed into the ground nearly 60,000 years ago.
