Real life. Asteroids hit with such force that the angle doesn't matter. They essentially explode on impact, blasting out a crater much larger than the original asteroid. And explosions don't care about angle of impact, they're gonna be a big old ball of fire regardless.

>then how do you find the absolute speed at which the earth moves forward in space?
You don't. You can't. Because there's no such thing. All speed is relative.
