I'm not much of a wheel gun guy, so pardon me if this is an easy fix. This revolver (an older Astra .38) fell about a foot onto the floor, and caused the hammer to pop out. Can it be fixed easily, and how?

It looks broke to me. Order a new one.
Sad to say, it’s definitely broken. Next sadist problem is that you’ll have to source a used hammer and have it fitted to the frame. If you feel up to a wee drive swing by Boots and Buckshot in Cartersville Georgia. I’ll give you a better idea on what’s what internally, and what it will take.

Yep, snapped. Easy tell, hammer has to have a pivot point to swing on. That's either a permanent pin through the hammer that fits into a recess in the frame allowing it to pivot, or a through hole in the hammer that a loose pin goes through. No pin or hole for a pin, hammer no worky.
Easy fix, but finding hammer may be hard, check gun parts Corp.
Hammer Time....
