Create Your Own Custom Meteorite Impact
Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, U.S.A., has a simulator called Impact Earth that shows you what would happen if a particular kind of meteorite smashed down from space. Plug in some info about the meteorite you'd like to simulate - size, composition, angle and speed of impact - and then check out the precise kind of havoc it would wreak.
