Ever wonder what might happen if a really large meteor hit the Earth? Just how big a "rock" would it take to wipe us out? If you are really curious to check out different possibilities, then this site is for you. You can change all the major variables (size, speed, density, distance from impact site, angle of strike, density of "target") to whatever strikes your fancy and then calculate the results. Everything from virtually no effect to the Earth breaks up.

If something like that does happen, we're already prepared. All we have to do is send up Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck, Michael Clarke Duncan, Owen Wilson and Steve Buscemi biggrin.gif .

I tried everything to destroy the earth but to no avail. I even hit it with a projectile bigger than the sun and it still said that the earth lost neglegable mass. But, the orbit and rotation were screwed up! angel_not.gif angel_not.gif Hehe! It blowed up! It blowed up real good! Now for 5 celtic points, name the TV show that was from.

Whatever happens, happens. It's not like we could stop Nature's will.

As long as I had some beer_mug.gif I'd be happy!
