Choose a spot. Pick an asteroid. End civilisation — for fun.
Ever wondered what would happen if an asteroid hit your hometown? Asteroid Launcher lets you find out — without all the inconvenient extinction.
This gloriously pointless web toy lets you drop an asteroid anywhere on Earth. You choose the size, speed, composition, and impact angle, then sit back and watch as it calculates just how much damage you’d cause. It’s like Google Maps meets Armageddon, but with fewer moral consequences.
Want to flatten a small village? Easy. Curious how deep a crater you’d make if you hurled a kilometre-wide rock at London? The answer’s disturbingly specific — and a little bit addictive.
You’ll see stats like crater size, energy released, number of vaporised people, and shockwave distance. It’s science wrapped in dark humour — educational in a terrifying way. And somehow, you’ll find yourself spending half an hour trying to design the “perfect” asteroid just to see what happens.
It’s proof that humans will gamify absolutely anything, including planetary destruction. And that’s exactly why we love it.
