RE: Meteor Crater, Arizona

in #travel7 years ago

The fact that a 45 meter wide meteor can make a crater larger then 1.2 kilometers wide is pretty scary... I don't want to imagine one of these heading towards a city. If we follow the same kind of impact ratio but increase the meteor size to 1.2 kilometers that would make a crater with a width of 31 920meters. That would take out a huge city and then some, especially including the shock wave that would come from the blast.
Anyways, if we find out a meteor is heading for us atleast we know we have Bruce Willis who can save us ..

Haha, yeah! Get them oil drillers up there and nuke the bastards! lol

They say there is a meteor hit by something of this size about every 1,600 years. Often it hits the water though, as that is the majority of our planet's surface.

Haha 😂 I guess we don't really know how fragile of a world we live in. I wonder if it could possibly do more damage if hitting the water, considering the tsunami it would create ... I guess we better appreciate each day as it comes, and hope we won't have any meteor in our life time
