Asteroid 2001WN5 Headed Towards Planet Earth on June 26, 2028

Okay.

good! i'll leave this dump at 2027 june

Any asteroid with a close approach is an ideal candidate for capture and mining.

Very small adjustments to the orbit can cause a close swingby of Luna or Earth to slow and capture the asteroid into high Earth orbit.

Wiki's take on it:

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

I don't see a type (M,C,S, etc.) but many near Earth asteroids are burned out comet nuclei. As such, we would expect them to have a high percentage of volatiles including water inside.

At a diameter of .9 km, I estimate the amount of recoverable water to be in the neighborhood of 40 million tons.

When processed into liquid hydrogen and oxygen, that amount of water would allow us to use nuke-thermal engines to begin exploration and colonization of the entire inner Solar System.

Ad astra

The 20's will be epic.

The Return of the gods...

Build an island with consecutive waves of land outward from that spot.


You will need to start immediately, it's a massive job....it will lesson the overall impact, in the end.

These fucktards with 'space' at their fingertips only think of escape, in stead of mitigation...

Pine.

I appreciate the advance notice. I will be watching the skies.

Watching, is NOT doing. DO.

I showed you where.

i will have to pay for that.
