Pretty cool, but I wish it could give more comprehensive analysis in some scenarios.

Striking just about anywhere in the continental United States and the entirety of North America is basically going to melt down into a thousand years of chaos, anyway.

.75 mile iron asteroid traveling at only 100 klm per second (some in our solar system travel as fast as 25,000 klm per second) direct hit on Shreveport.

I picked Opelousas. Looks like it did a ton of improvements.

How about a game? The largest asteroid you can hit the ground with kill the fewest number of people. But you can't send it into water.
