And, now an asteroid...

[Dannyalcatraz]

Do you mean Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla? He was the one who came flying to Earth in a crystalline asteroid. Or am I missing something? (There have been several movies with Godzilla fighting MechaGodzilla over the years so I may be focusing upon the wrong one.)

I meant MechaGodzilla, but I had forgotten about SpaceGodzilla! That would have been the better comparison.

So you're telling me that we need to calculate its attack bonus?

Or the THACEarth.

Can we direct it to hit a specific place? There are places and people that need a smiting

I do not disagree with you.
Perhaps we can guide it in via collective willpower/prayer/etc? On the count of 3 everyone think of a target....
The only rule is you can't reveal your pick (it's like making a birthday wish) out loud or in print.

It is not a monster. It is a trap that you are very, very, very, very unlikely to trigger.

Sure, but a natural 1 is still a natural 1...

There's seven billion people on the planet. That means... 350 million ones? This thing is not going to annihilate a large country.

Famous last words.

How big was the Tunguska asteroid?

How big was the Tunguska asteroid?

Off the top of my head, about 100m, so about 50 times larger in size and 125000 times larger in volume than the current one.

 

[Zardnaar]

What about Chelmbr whatever one in 2014 iirc.

Airburst over Russian city.

20m

How big was the Tunguska asteroid?

Huge by comparison to the thing coming by in November. 2018 VP1 is about 2 meters across.

If Tunguska was a stony asteroid, best model fits seem to say 50 to 80 meters across. If it was a cometary fragment, somewhat larger than that.
