Although there is now general agreement that there was a huge impact at the end of the Cretaceous that led to the iridium enrichment of the K-T boundary layer, remnants have been found of other impacts of the same order of magnitude that did not result in any mass extinctions, and there is no clear linkage between an impact and any other incident of mass extinction.

Before the impact, models of Jupiter's atmosphere had indicated that the break-up of the largest fragments would occur at atmospheric pressures of anywhere from 30 kilopascals to a few tens of megapascals ( from 0. 3 to a few hundred bar ), with some predictions that the comet would penetrate a layer of water and create a bluish shroud over that region of Jupiter.

Their range and impact force made them effective weapons against armored warriors on horseback, because they could penetrate armor.

Gamma rays would not penetrate Earth's atmosphere to impact the surface directly, but they would chemically damage the stratosphere.

Variation in the speed of the penetrator can either cause it to be vaporized on impact ( in the case of traveling too fast ), or to not penetrate far enough ( in the case of traveling too slow ).

The mission's specific landing site was located between two young impact craters, North and South Ray craters — and in diameter, respectively — which provided " natural drill holes " which penetrated through the lunar regolith at the site, thus leaving exposed bedrock that could be sampled by the crew.

* Shatter cone, rare geological feature in the bedrock beneath meteorite impact craters or underground nuclear explosions

While rocks melted by the impact resemble volcanic rocks, they incorporate unmelted fragments of bedrock, form unusually large and unbroken fields, and have a much more mixed chemical composition than volcanic materials spewed up from within the Earth.
