Fun with impacts

This will just be a short post because I wanted to post this link. It goes to a website run by Purdue University that allows you to calculate the effects of a meteor impact on Earth. You do this by specifying the size the density and many other factors and then a set distance from the impact and seeing the damage that is caused. This is a fun thing to just play around with for a little while so enjoy.

A meteor that might be fun to play around with would the the Chicxulub Meteor:
Diameter: 10km (some say as big as 20km but this is where most estimates are)
Speed: ~16km/s
The impact occurred most likely in water
Play around with some of the other variables to see what all occurred
