Que savons-nous de l'impacteur, qui pouvait être un astéroïde ou une comète ou même un objet mixte? [...] L'impacteur a été totalement volatilisé lors de la collision, pulvérisant la croûte terrestre tout autour du point zéro, l'énergie cinétique considérable se transformant en partie en énergie thermique. On estime que 98 ou 99 % de l'énergie ont été utilisés pour la fonte et la volatilisation de l'impacteur et de la roche cible, l'éjection des débris et aussi l'impressionnant ébranlement sismique, les 1 ou 2 % restants [...] étant disponibles pour l'ouragan et le raz-de-marée. 4, record 2, French, - corps%20impacteur
