Q&A

A meteorite is about to ram into a planet. How long do the main characters have to leave the planet before they die?

+0

At the end of Book 6 of my book series, a magic ritual has caused a large meteorite (around 1/4 the size of the one that caused the chicxulub crater) to ram into the small planet (around the size of Earth's moon). However, the main characters are some time away from their ship when the meteorite hits. If the meteorite hits the opposite side of the planet, how long do these characters have to escape before they are swept away by the shockwave?
