It is believed that this crater was formed by the impact of a meteorite falling from space 600 million years ago.

Higher than normal amounts of iron, nickel and cobalt have been found in the crater. Many asteroids also contain these elements in high quantity, so their presence also gives evidence of meteor strike here.The development works proposed here include construction of high quality road, nature trail, entry gate and information center, knowledge center and cafeteria.Beautification of crater lake, construction of jetty, development of gardens, development of green area, construction of ropeway to reach the temple located here, construction of entrance gate and signage, electricity, drip irrigation and other decorative works.According to Dalip Singh Rathore, Deputy Director of Tourism Department, apart from the Ramgarh crater, the ancient Shiva temple of the tenth century of Khujraho style is situated in the periphery of this crater.
