Now I decided that this week for this one here, it's a little bigger. It's almost half a kilometer. And I did have a for instance with this one. If we were to get a look what that looked like. How does that unfold here on Earth? Well, coming in at, let me say, 16.8 kilometers per second, 60,000, 40,000 kilometers an hour, that's 37,580 miles an hour. And so coming in at a 45 degree angle, so that's how mostly meters and asteroids when we come to the atmosphere, they're about a 45 degree angle, so dropping. So it would hit the ground and it would be producing a 5.8 mile crater, a 9.3 kilometer crater, 1,866 feet deep, 174 meters deep. And we hit the ground, it was about 37,000 meters.
