Looking at the Moon w/ My 5 Year Old & What He Said Was Suprising...
So I just stepped outside to have a breath of fresh air after dinner, saw the moon was out, and went in to get my 5 year old so he could have a look at how awesome it looks.

Me: Hey buddy, come out here and have a look at the moon tonight.

Son: Oh cool, it looks like its full....and look at that star next to it.

(I hadn't seen it myself until he said something)

Me: Oh yeah, look at that thing.

Son: I bet its a planet dad.

Me: Looks like it might be.

Son: I think its a planet that's going to come this way and crash into the earth, and blow everything up.

Me: What!?!? Where did you hear about something like this?

Son: Nowhere....but I just think that's what its gonna do.


Kinda left me mouth open and in shock to hear my boy say such a thing. He's a bright little kid, and perceptive...but never have I let him hear or see such subject matter ever in the past. Not sure what to think about it, but sure was a shocker to find out I have a potential Nibirutard in the family.

If your 5 year old said it, it must be true.

That's a pretty normal response for a 5yo boy - especially a boy. BTW he's not predicting anything, he's just thinking up a cool story. Ever notice your boy playing with cars and there's always a car crash?

I went out and saw it myself. It's there alright. Could this be related to the same event that a nasa insider was warning about an asteroid impacting earth on Nov 29 time frame? Also, could it be they are expecting it to land off the west coast, so they are covering it up by using a storm event to hide the fact? Lots of possibilities. BTW it's pretty big too. I would be worried.

It's jupiter.

"Jupiter, the King of the Gods, is the ruler of Sagittarius. In Astrology, Jupiter is a planet of plenty. It is tolerant and expansive. The first of the social planets, Jupiter seeks insight through knowledge. Some of this planet's keywords include morality, gratitude, hope, honor, and the law. Jupiter is a planet of broader purpose, reach, and possibility."

If it is an asteroid, maybe someone could help me figure out what the correct vectors are based on a 1800 ft asteroid impacting earth.

How high would the tsunami be? That is the question. Can anyone help me figure that out?

What would actually happen if Jupiter would collide with earth? Would we just fall through it? I would imagine that practically anything on the surface would be scrapped off but would the planet as a whole move just right through it?
