Ever wondered how big an asteroid would need to be to obliterate, say, Cardiff?
With this little tool you can test the combination of size, composition, angle and speed of impact until you find the right one. :o) It will also give you the size and depth of the resulting crater, temperatures, seismic data and so forth.
Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] martinhesselius for the link.
