Another scenario that the EFI (The Emacs Future
Institue) has considered is that an asteroid
with an estimated diameter of fourteen
kilometers will smash into the Far East, along
with multiple fragments dislodged by the
atmosphere on entry. The impact will shake the
planet, blow away the ozone layer, and even
tilt the earth's axis. The vast meteorite will
carve out a giant crater, 230 kilometers in
diameter, and kick massive amounts of dust into
the stratosphere. Thick clouds will encompass
the entire planet, and soon the earth will
freeze over. Winter will come... the long, cold
Impact Winter!
