With apologies to the Welsh
Is there a part of Wales you have an innate dislike of? Do you fancy yourself as a Ming the Merciless type figure? Merely bored? Well I have excellent news as you can have a tinker with the Asteroidal Impact Simulator and experiment with the effect of various sizes of projectiles moving at various speeds.
And no I don't know why Wales and Wales alone has been singled out for this abuse.

Re: With apologies to the Welsh
I seem to have replaced Aberystwyth with a huge crater that has an Eiffel Tower in it.

Re: With apologies to the Welsh
Oops, got it in the Irish Sea and it rebounded just like the Dambusters' bomb and hit Birmingham. Good enough, though I, they steal our water don't they.

Re: With apologies to the Welsh
I can see this getting quite competitive. Choose a high velocity and a very acute angle and the sea as your target and see how many times you can skim your asteroid before you hit LLandudno.
