Tools of Vigi-Sky
	Description		Read-only	Idempotent	Open world
`asteroid_impact`Simulate an asteroid impact: energy, air burst or crater, radii of blast, heat and earthquake effects, effects felt at a chosen distance, and how often such an object hits Earth (Collins, Melosh & Marcus 2005). Use it for 'what if' questions; for real asteroids passing today use neo_watch. Local model, no network call.
