I don't think you understand how big 1.9 billion Castle Bravo's is. That number is exceedingly exaggerated to absolutely insane levels.

BS on this.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29348827


30 miles diameter comet @ 1000kg/m^3 density @ 56 km/s impact velocity
= 9.24 x 1025 Joules released
= 2.21 x 1010 MegaTons TNT
= 22,100,000,000 Megatons of TNT equiv energy

or, the energy equiv of 1.9 billion Castle Bravo explosions (15 Mt)

Imagining 1.9 billion times that power in an impact event takes a lot of good imagination.

Unless someone knows the comets exact trajectory, the chances of it hitting are incredibly low.

Well at least the Mars Orbiter satellite will be getting a good look of this, assuming it's not taken out first or hit by the after-effects of the debris plume.

Wow I am sleepy this morning!

corrections:

30 miles diameter comet @ 1000kg/m^3 density @ 56 km/s impact velocity
= 9.24 x 10^25 Joules released
= 2.21 x 10^10 MegaTons TNT
= 22,100,000,000 Megatons of TNT equiv energy

and would be the equiv of about 1.5 billion Castle bravo explosions...

I calculated the above using the parameters listed above.

The 1.3 billion Castle Bravos number used earlier came from the 20 billion megaton total earlier calculated by others that I used.


Its all guesses and will vary some depending on the actual size and density, but it all says in the same ballpark.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 35064454


Just checked, the Shoemaker-Levy comet that hit Jupiter was discovered in March 1993, and was shortly thereafter projected to hit the planet in July 1994. 16 months later, which it did.

This comet just recently discovered has been projected to hit Mars in October 2014, 19 months from now.

I remember the run up to that Jupiter impact, it was highly anticipated and went on for that whole 16 months.

They were right back then.

They might be right again.

And this time the implications could be catasrophic for all humanity, when the inevitable debris from Earth's closest neighbor makes it's way towards Earth.

And there's nothing anyone can do to stop it!

It would seem that a focused impact with that much explosive force could be enough to alter the Mars orbit. At which time the question them becomes; How long until Mars impacts Earth?

Fortunately its not going to split Mars, but it will make a massive explosion and a big molten crater, and will send a bunch of ejecta into space. That means we would likely see a large increase in meteors here on Earth for a while.

Even if we go very conservative and put this at 20 miles diameter(instead of 30) and reduce the density to 600 kg/m3(instead of 1,000), we still get

= 1.64 x 10^25 Joules
= 3.92 x 10^9 Megatons TNT
= 3,920,000,000 Megatons of TNT
[link to impact.ese.ic.ac.uk]


So a very conservative estimate would put it at about 4 billion Megatons of TNT, or 266 million times the energy of the Castle Bravo explosion shown here.
