The Barringer Crater resulted from a meteorite impact with the earth about 50,000 years ago.
You are probably referring to the Barringer Crater. This meteor crater is a meteorite impact crater approximately 37 miles (60 km) east of Flagstaff and 18 miles (29 km) west of Winslow in the northern Arizona desert of the United States.
The Pebbles Crater, also known as the Meteor Crater or Barringer Crater, near Winslow, Arizona, has a roughly circular shape with a diameter of about 1.2 kilometers (0.75 miles). It features a bowl-like depression with steep inner walls and a relatively flat floor. The crater's formation resulted from a high-velocity meteor impact, which contributed to its distinct circular profile.
Pluto is so small and far away that even our best telescopes can't get a good enough picture of it to see craters. That will change when the New Horizons probe passes by Pluto and takes some closer photos.
Giant meteors have hit the Earth many times. Probably the most destructive - so far - was Chicxulub which "may" have been the cause of the dinosaurs extinction.The most notable crater in the US is - not surprisingly - called meteor crater. Located in the Arizona desert, near Winslow.

The town of Middlesboro in Kentucky is the only town in the US that was built within a meteor crater. The meteorite impact occurred over 300 million years ago, creating a unique geological formation that the town now sits within.

Exploration of other worlds has helps us learn about the impact of space objects. When an object strikes the surface of a larger object in space, it explodes and leaves behind a round pit called an impact crater.
