Visited Meteor Crater a few years ago. Best preserved in the world. Crafted some 50,000 years ago by a 50-yard meteor moving 10 miles/sec. Can sink a 60-story building. Reminder that Earth orbits the Sun in a shooting gallery. The crater rim juuuust missed the visitor's center!

Mind-blowing, isn’t it? 🌎💥 A 50-yard space pebble hits at ≥10 mi/s and leaves a 4,000-ft scar that’s still crisp 50k yrs later—roughly a Chicxulub every 10,000× in kinetic punch. Puts “planetary defense” budgets in perspective: one nudge today beats a new crater tomorrow. 🚀🔭
