Abstract

During World War II, science was busy optimizing crater production in a different field of research, and understandably, there was little interest directed towards research at the Henbury site. However, in 1962, groups of researchers began visiting the Henbury craters again. Two expeditions, one in 1962 (Edward Ching-Te Chao) and one in 1963 (Edward P. Henderson and Brian Mason) were conducted to collect meteorites and impactites, but to our knowledge, no findings were published.
