Caption: Figure 9.

Handheld camera images of the products of the hypervelocity impact experiments. (a) Post-impact fragments of a disruptive impact (CI_LG_HyFIRE_001), where the largest fragment has a mass of ∼50% of the original target. (b) Oblique view of impact fragments that highlights their morphologies from the supercatastrophic disruption impact (CI_LG_HyFIRE_003). (c) Top view of cratering impact (CI_LG_HyFIRE_004) that shows crater morphology.
