NASA confirms massive asteroid is on course for a close encounter with Earth within hours | |
Dr. Astro Senior Forum Moderator  User ID: 4211721  United States10/09/2015 06:00 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So your saying there's a chance? Why does horse shit from msn get pin? Probably for the same reason the other thread with the real but very small chance threat got a bunch of unpin requests. Reality is boring. Not really. If you count the ever higher number and widespread college and university shootings, Astromut, reality is far from boring. Especially if you see how and why. Besides, Astromutt, if an asteroid did hit the Earth and was an ELE then you'd most definitely would be out of a job. Sorry, I should have qualified my statement. Real astronomy is boring to most people. They much prefer fantasy.  |

Then you haven't been paying much attention, because everyday there are hundreds of potential threats that we know of. [link to neo.jpl.nasa.gov] Every single asteroid on that list has at least an order of magnitude better chance to hit earth than the piece of crap I'm talking about.

It's interesting that the estimates of the size of this thing is exactly the same as the announcement in that movie "Deep Impact"--that was such a great flick. Might watch it again today to get in the mood. Remember we have just been through 2 days of very high solar winds and geo-magnetic storms. Who knows if those solar winds might affect the trajectory or even break it up into smaller pieces. Even a little "chip-off-the-old-block" would be bad news for us. Just sayin. Cheers!

| Dr. Astro Senior Forum Moderator User ID: 4211721 United States10/09/2015 06:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | wtf. Astro please tell us, anything you can, please at least what % do you think ? so far I haven't seen you with bs.. so this worries me a bit. 0.0000000000221% chance, read the thread. Keep in mind that is for 2015 HR182, NOT this distraction of an asteroid. To be clear, this thread is complete bullcrap and a distraction. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 69923049 United States10/09/2015 06:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | is there even an astroid there? if there is will it hit or what are the chances of it missing. im no good with this sort of thing thats why i posted it here to get some sort of understanding Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70092320 It won't. If you're on a pc, you can look at its orbit here. [link to ssd.jpl.nasa.gov] Click on show close approach data. WTF am I looking at here? I'm not even a novice. LMAO  |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 70514016  Ireland10/09/2015 08:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | And yet the other thread which shows an actual potential asteroid impact for next week gets all the unpin requests... Just wow. If there's a conspiracy here it's that this story was created to give a distraction from a real potential threat.  Dr Astro saying actual doom from space is a possibility? Tomato plants inside immediately. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 60499354 United States10/09/2015 09:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | will it hit? will it pass by? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70092320 or is this just plain old bull crap 86666 (2000 FL10) 2015-Oct-10 0.1689 65.7 1.2 km - 2.6 km 16.8 16.29 As you see, it will NOT be close as 65.7 lunar distance is quite a ways out. 16.29 kms isn't even the fastest we've ever seen either. I'm not worried at all. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69101247 Dont people sometimes win that? Millions of people play. There aren't millions of earths lining up to be shot. Oh sure we'll be hit eventually, but you have to be honest about the odds of any particular asteroid. Or you're just an ass. |
