The Barringer Crater in Arizona is the biggest "visible" crater at .737 miles diameter. The Yucatan impact is bigger but not really visible. I saw the Arizona one when I was a kid ~ its pretty cool. http://72.14.209.104/search?q=cache:WC2GaA1w4LcJ:www.solarviews.com/eng/tercrate.htm+largest+meteor+crater+visible+at&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1 May 20 06, 6:59 PM

On the moon there are some much bigger visable ones. The biggest crater is called Clavius and is 160 kilometers in diameter. On the backside of the Moon, there is the remains of an even bigger crater which is now filled-in and called Mare Orientale and is several thousand kilometers across. http://www.astronomycafe.net/qadir/q630.html May 20 06, 10:42 PM
