What happens if an asteroid clobbers Bristol? It's not good.


About once every 50,000 years, an average-sized asteroid smashed into the earth. If it happened in Bristol, there would be a massive explosion with a whopping fireball. And it wouldn't be a nice place to be for anyone. Then again, the blast radius would reach as far north as Springfield and nearly to Long Island in the south. Most of Connecticut would perish right along with us.  LINK
