Yes, its a thing.
There is a simulator on the internet that shows what would happen if an Asteroid hit the earth
For example
If an asteroid hit the size of Wembley Stadium made of Iron hit London at a speed of 17 km/s at a 45 degree angle
The crater would be the size of London.
The airblast would shatter windows from Newcastle to Paris.
The fireball would be visible to the naked eye in Edinburgh.
And the seismic Shaking would be felt in Northern Italy, Spain, and Norway.
Thats me geeked out for the day |
