The Metroid Franchise Just Really Does Not Like Planets (Calc)

Background Info and Lowballs[]

This is an attempt to calc the collision of the Leviathan against Tallon IV.

Tallon IV is... an unusual planet to say the least. Data from Metroid Prime states that it has a mass of 5.1 trillion teratons with a diameter of 13,400 km. While the volume may be slightly above Earth's, the mass is unheard of, leading to the planet having a gravity 770 times stronger than Earth.

The formula used to calc this equation comes from this site, a very massive but useful formula in this case, as we will need to find kinetic energy using the blast radius of the collision.

As a lowball, we will assume that the Leviathan is made of iron.

Actual Math[]

"D= 0.07 * Cf * (ge / g)^(1/6) * (W * pa / pt)^(1/3.4)

Where:

D = Crater Diameter = 1000 km

Cf = Crater Collapse Factor ( this is equal to 1.3 for craters >4km) = 1.3

ge = Gravitational Acceleration at the surface = 7578 m / sec^2

g = Acceleration at the surface of the body on which the crater is formed = 7578 m / sec^2

W = Kinetic Energy of the impacting body (in kilotons TNT equivalent)

pa = Density of the impactor (ranging from 1.8g/cm3 for a comet to 7.3g/cm3 for an iron meteorite). = 7.3 g / cm^3

pt = Density of the target rock" = ?

First we need the average density of Tallon IV in grams / centimeters cubed (5.1 * 10^30) / (5.24 * 10^23) = 9732824.42748 g / cm^3

Now lets plug in everything:

The result is 7.314342541 * 10^19 kilotons of TNT, in our tiering system, that is 5-B.

Conclusion[]

This should be an outlier, or at least would have been, had it not been for fact that Aether's Leviathan also has a 5-B feat (That being that it made another planet [Dark Aether]). Additionally, it scales to both Tallon Metroids and Luminoth/Ing in Tallon IV and Aether.
