Elenin fails to perturb a small asteroid at 0.002 AUs distance

Sure it is. Nothing to see here, move along, just a coincidence.

Thank you! Hey astro should we be able to see the moon tonight?

Waning gibbous, it should rise quite late tonight though, generally around midnight or later depending on your location (I'm assuming continental US). With that I'll be turning in for the night; got a space station and space shuttle to catch in the early morning.

As would be expected of two cosmic lightweights, even in close proximity.

For common sense, science & sanity.

nice post Astronut. keep bringing the "real" to the masses.

As promised....I apologize! :)

Apology accepted. And with that I'm calling it a night (I mean it this time! lol)

Gee a bad day for GLP. No Rapture and Elenin is squat.

Thank you

I am still puzzled that such a minor body (ie all comets) have enough mass to produce a tail like that.
Just doesn't make sense.
I would imagine that it is the comet itself that affects the solar particles enough to create the tail. Thoughts anyone?

there still will be rabid fanatics that wail about a scientist

that said its causing eqs on earth, or someone that has

absolute "proof" that elenin is huge.

lets hope that the failed rapture and this discovery helps

paint a clearer picture of who the sheep really are....

ie. followers of harold camping, dutchsinse, astral patriot

and terral, just to name a few..

You must be insane to post on this site then.

Read the fucking header.

Excellent work, Astro! I hope this "Close Encounter" will help calm folks a bit.

Thank you SO much for the awesome picture of Elenin. I'm beginning to think she might be even less than 3km. I know the discoverer estimated the nucleus to be between 3-4km in diameter, but I think it might actually be smaller than 3.

Great picture! Thanks again!

PIN this thread. I admire facts from real observation! It can bring us closer to the truth.

Now I have two more questions left

1. The asteroid is very dim. The sky is full of objects with 19 apparent magnitude everywhere. Can you double check it's RQ176? For example, taking two shots at different time to show RQ176 is actually moving and not a remote star. Once we have such photos, we can settle the dispute over Elenin's mass once and for all.

2. How Elenin causes M8+ earthquakes still remains a mystery.

I want to say again, it's hardly a coincidence. Elenin happens to have very small inclination 1.839°, so it can form a straight line between planets and the Sun.

M8+ earthquakes are very rare, but there were M8.1, M8.8, and M9.0 in the past four Elenin's alignments. There are only thirty M8+ mega earthquakes since 1975 (35 years), all of the last three M8+ earthquakes happened in Elenin's alignment! Only eleven M8.6+ mega earthquakes in the past 100 years, two happened with Elenin's alignment . The probability of random events is almost 0. We still need an explanation!!!

If Elenin has tiny mass, I can only think of some possibilities

[Hypothesis A] TPTB HAARP/X37-B it whenever it forms an alignment. Elenin is a psyop

How to verify it:
Understand the mechanism of HAARP in full and find relevant measurements to detect it.

[Hypothesis B] Elenin is static charged like Comet NEAT (2002-2003) (a strongly charged comet seems not rare in space):

[link to www.thunderbolts.info]


A typical comet may weight 10^14 kg, Sun is weighted 2 * 10^30 kg, a comet is 0.0000000000000001 Sun Mass, it's like a bee flying over a mountain. How can a comet influence Sun? But the truth is "Yes it can". Check the web link above. You can see it clearly. NASA explained to the public that it's coincidence


YouTube Video: [link to www.youtube.com]

Pity that Comet NEAT has 81.7° of inclination (it can never form a line between Earth and Sun), so we cannot use it as a reference.

Coulomb's force is multiple magnitude stronger than gravitational force, so a tiny object can possibly exert strong Coulomb's force on Sun. Comet NEAT is very tiny compared to the Sun, but it caused a giant CME.

In this case, Elenin can influence Sun (composed of plasma), but cannot influence a asteroid (composed of rock)

This can possibly explain the earthquakes caused by Elenin's alignment

"Perhaps the observation of Nobel Laureate Hannes Alfvén, the father of plasma cosmology, can put the issue in context. It was his opinion that coronal mass ejections are caused by a breakdown or breach of the Sun’s double layer—an event that provokes an explosive exchange between the insulated plasma cell of the Sun and the plasma of surrounding space."

How to verify this theory:
a. Observe the Sun. The plasma composition on Sun's surface may be influenced.
b. The attraction from Sun to Elenin may induce small changes to Elenin's orbit. (to be calculated later)
c. There will be a Magnetic Field from Elenin near Earth in late Sep and early Oct. (but it's already too late to find out)

What it implies if it's true:
the influence by Elenin on Sun in late September will be (3.1/0.6)^2 ~= 26.7 times of Mar 11, 2011

[Hypothesis C] Elenin has strong magnetic field

How to verify it: I don't know

[Hypothesis D] Just a BIG coincidence! As you can see the M8+ listed in the past 35 years, the probability is very low.

The Red One Comes

That must have been some fast moving asteroid huh?
Just kidding! Good shot Astro!

Thanks for the update Astro; and thanks for sharing your photography of the objects with us as well.

I've asked in this forum for ANY evidence that Elenin is "huge", posing a threat to earth and got none. Elenin is nothing, just like Y2K was nothing, just like Nibiru is non-existent and just like 2012 will be nothing. I happen to KNOW that many accounts of the paranormal are true from first-hand experience. These other offbeat ideas are different. While I can point to personal experience as support for my beliefs, no one can point to any such personal experience or research that proves things like Elenin or Nibiru are anything but imaginary dangers. If they could, I'd like to see it. Repeating inaccurate or misleading statements, articles, etc. doesn't count. I mean first hand -- surely there are amateur astronomers here who have done calculations that can withstand critical scrutiny? Otherwise, it's all BS. Or maybe it's just HAARP playing tricks on us. It seems to be responsible for everything else that doesn't make sense.

Obviously I missed something. What did you do Watcher?

Nice work Astro.... 5 stars for a balanced observation

Thank you for the post!

Good job Astro



Its a pretty image of elenin and the asteroid congratulations.

All doom and gloom can wait ......... for now

Here comes Astronut, just in time. Folks, look at the planet and make up your own mind.

Oh yeah....PIN THIS SHIZZZzzzzle!!!!!!

exactly. go look at it and then you will know it's just a small comet or keep deluding yourself and join the next EPIC "Heaven's Gate" FAIL.

Interesting.

But your post that Elenin fails to perturb a small asteroid at .002 AUs distance means "nothing" really.

Do you happen to know if that small asteriod is highly magnetic like the Earth is? The Earth is highly magnetic and iron is its most abundant metal.

Could it be that the small asteroid is just a common space rock with very little iron content like 94% of the other space rocks? I think so.

So... there is a 94% chance that the small asteroid would not be affected at all by Elenin if it is not iron based as only 6% of the space rocks are.

Elenin could still be affecting the Earth, even at this great distance. How is unknown. But it doesn't mean that it can't be affecting the Earth from that distance.

My scientific guess would be Optically Increased Magnetism, which I discovered many years ago. Magnetism can be increased optically, just as optics increases other things at the focal point.

So how would you explain the Earth changes over the last year or two?

wait so elenin really IS just a comet?

*sadface*

Astronut, you are really one of the only people bringing actual facts to this site. I appreciate every post you write. i feel like you teach me things. you're a very smart individual and i really dont see why ppl call you a shill. most likely they are the shills.


keep doin what you do dawg.
