    Using Shoemaker's formula, a crater of diameter approximately
    equal to 8.5 meters...

How does a 30 meter object, coming in at multiple kilometers per
second, produce a crater smaller than itself?

Are you sure your decimal point is right?

What is Shoemaker's formula?

How many km/sec are you presuming?
