Impact Simulator...plug in your own numbers. [link to impact.ese.ic.ac.uk]

My results show a 4 mile crater, fireball 9x apparent size of the sun, and at 100 kms away a magnitude 7 earthquaking.

Re: HEADS UP!! (2005 YU55)
I think what makes this believable is the timing... I mean FEMA releases the EAB announcement June 9th and the very next DAY June 10th NASA puts out a preparedness video. Seems very suspect to me.

After all, we are talking about 0.0022 AU from earth!

It passes within the moons orbit and very close to the moon. Check out this animation.

DEEP IMPACT
Asteroid 2005 YU55 To Approach Earth Nov 8 2011

Trajectory of Asteroid 2005 YU55 - November 8-9, 2011. Click here for animation
by Staff Writers
Pasadena CA (JPL) Mar 11, 2011
Near-Earth asteroid 2005 YU55 will pass within 0.85 lunar distances from the Earth on November 8, 2011. The upcoming close approach by this relatively large 400 meter-sized, C-type asteroid presents an excellent opportunity for synergistic ground-based observations including optical, near infrared and radar data.

An animated illustration by JPL shows the Earth and moon flyby geometry for November 8th and 9th when the object will reach a visual brightness of 11th magnitude and should be easily visible to observers in the northern and southern hemispheres.

The closest approach to Earth and the Moon will be respectively 0.00217 AU and 0.00160 AU on 2011 November 8 at 23:28 and November 9 at 07:13 UT.

I'm bumping my own post here. Several people have posted that they think the moon will be on the other side of earth when yu55 passes by. That is not the case! If you click on the animation above it clearly show the moons position.

Another song she is learning is called "Battlestar" by Bernotas, Chris M.I guess that should go with Elenin or Niburu threads though.

Anyone knows about an english version of this scary tube?



 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1553778


I will translate it for you guys. Give me a while please. Thanks.
 Quoting: IamSawyer


Here's the complete translation for this video as requested. Karma points for my time are appreciated!!



"In social networks, an asteroid the size of an aircraft carrier will pass between the Earth and the moon, and it has nothing to do with Comet Elenin. This space rock is named 2005 YU55, it will come within a distance of 326,740km. Astronomers say that this is the closest that an asteroid has come to our planet since 1976.

Despite scientists designating this object as potentially hazardous, there is no reason to fear. On Facebook, there are comments that suggest that Comet Elenin’s tail could push YU55’s trajectory off course, and redirect it towards our planet. However, Comet Elenin’s tail is less dense than the smoke of a cigarette.

In an initial estimation, it was believed that the asteroid had a diameter of 400 meters. Recently, the website SpaceWeather.com, which is a NASA website, published that the diameter is 175 meters and its orbit around the sun is of 14 years. The asteroid will come closest to our planet on November 8, 2011 at 23:28 hrs. This poses a bigger threat than Elenin since it YU55 will pass between the Moon and the Earth. These asteroids are potentially dangerous, because their encounters with planets such as ours could have devastating consequences.

The Asteroid 2005 YU55 was discovered by Spacewatch of the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Tucson, Arizon. Said celestial object, will be the one with the greatest magnitude that has approached our planet since 1976. The next one will take place in 2028.

The website, The Times of India, calculates that if this asteroid were to impact, it would be the equivalent of 65,000 atomic bombs. It would leave a crater greater than 10km wide, and half a km deep. One of the greatest extinctions ever, affected life on Earth during the Triassic Period. And let us not forget the impact at Chicxulub in the Yucatan Peninsula which occurred 65 million years ago, and ended the dinosaur era, which dominated for 100,000 million years. The asteroid that made the dinosaurs extinct was 10km. Asteroid 2005 YU55, measures only 175 meters in comparison. However, for statistic purposes, an impact like that of Chicxulub will occur sooner than later. The question is; do humans possess the technology to deter an asteroid of that size.

Asteroids typically reside in the neighborhood between Mars and Jupiter in the area known as the Asteroid Belt. But the approximation of YU55 is the closest approach of a potentially hazardous asteroid we’ve had since 1976, when the Asteroid 1976 AA which measured 130 meters came within a similar distance. The reality is that our planet will witness the impact of a potentially hazard asteroid sooner than later.

The Asteroid 2005 YU55 is classified “potentially hazardous”. Not surprising, astronomers already have its trajectory well calculated. It will not impact our planet as many claim on social networks. Asteroid 2005 YU55 will be visible on November 8, 2011."

1908 - Tunguska - Russia

And it possibly was not an asteroid because it caused a nuclear explosion and changed the course before hiting the ground, according to withnesses.

Each time a person stands for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he or she sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. And crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. Few are willing to embrace the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential vital quality for those who seek to change a world that yields most painfully to change.
