Wolfe Creek is the 2nd largest meteor impact crater on earth. It has been dated at 300,000 years.
However a US mineral site Mindat [www.mindat.org] has revised it's age to 10,000 - 20,000 years a huge change.
Here is a pic from Mick Remer's I phone of a painting of a meteor which I found some time ago in the Kimberleys and it is pretty obvious that the aboriginal artist who painted it got a pretty good look.
My aboriginal friend to whom I gave the co ords of the cave and who then visited said 'Yeah Jim it's Wolfe Creek'.
So around 10000 years ago something happened. More than 1 bunch of meteors hit the earth Hanebury craters near Alice Springs are an example around the same age and in the US and other places around the world.
