General durability for being launched into the moon?

[Jucaslucas]

There are probably calcs about this somewhere, but anyway.

Is there a general durability level for a feat of a character being launched into the moon from Earth?

I'm discussing with some people, and they keep saying it's like continent to planet level, and I'm pretty it isn't . . .

To be launched into the moon or just to the surface of the moon?

For being launched to the surface of the moon being (slightly below) escape velocity is enough. Energy to accelerate a 60 kg human to escape velocity is 0.5*60 kg*11200 m/s ^2 = 3763200000 J = 3.7632e9 J

So that would be building level.

For being launched into the moon the size of the hole in the moon becomes relevant and has to be added to that.

Man, building level? That's underwhelming . . .

Is it higher if they get there faster? Like, in 2 seconds?

In 2 seconds is Large City level

Okay, thanks.
