• What was the size, shape and velocity of impactor?
• What is estimated was the local/global effects (this is where the research comes in)

What you will turn in:

• Poster with a picture of the impact and bullet points for areas of research
• two page paper, submitted via turn-it-in, also with picture (not counted in 2 pages) and documented research
