Is An Asteroid Coming?

[ABikerSailor]

Well, considering how much sky there is out there, as well as how many NEO's out there they detect on a regular basis (Near Earth Objects), that amount of money is just a drop in the bucket. At least 95 percent of the space around us is going to remain undetected.

/——/ I wonder if we don’t already have to technology to deflect an asteroid

Not a chance. Something between the size of a school bus to something around 1/2 mile wide, traveling at over 28,000 mph? Yeah.............sure.............the only thing we MIGHT be able to do is track it, but we don't have any kind of missiles that would stop it, they wouldn't be fast enough.

And, forget trying to catch it in space............those speeds are more like 50,000 mph.

You do know that the Japanese landed a probe on an asteroid ?
They Made It! Japan's Two Hopping Rovers Successfully Land on Asteroid Ryugu

Dude...............landing on an asteroid and taking a couple of pictures is VASTLY different than trying to stop a cataclysmic event from striking the earth.

So..............tell me...............how exactly are two hopping rovers that land successfully on an asteroid going to stop it or veer it off course so it doesn't strike Earth and end all life?

I didn't say it wasn't you stated that an asteroid was traveling to fast to catch up to.

The bigger something is, the more mass it has. The more mass it has, the more fuel it takes to make it move as fast as something with 1/100th it's mass. If you are to launch something capable of deflecting or destroying the asteroid, it's gotta be fast enough to catch it, and currently, we don't have the tech to move something that big that fast. Your two little bouncing robots don't count, because they would have no effect. In order to stop or deflect it, that is gonna take quite a bit of mass to have an effect.

/----/ Thanks. But we can catch them but probably not powerful enough to redirect them.

I’m tempted to post this under the conspiracy thread. But, it does raise some legit questions.

The Proposed Budget For NASA’s ‘Planetary Defense Coordination Office’ Is Suddenly Increased To $150 Million.

And the office’s only been there for 2 years.

The new Planetary Defense Coordination Office—which, despite its science fiction-sounding name, is part of a very real effort to ward off the potentially deadly impact of asteroids that may hit the planet—is charged with supervising “all NASA-funded projects to find and characterize asteroids and comets that pass near Earth’s orbit around the sun.”

Should we get busy building survival bunkers?

/----/ Libtards will blame Global Warming for causing Astroid strikes.

Trump boot lickers will back it so that the Orange Ogre can get his Buck Rogers style space force and drive the debt even higher.

You are simply unable to do anything but turn every single thread into a hate Trump one.

Hey....................be fair dude....................if you're gonna slap down Progressive Patriot for politicizing your thread, you gotta slap down Cellblock as well, because he's the one that threw the first political shot across.

That Longknife is being partisan if he slaps down Progressive, yet lets you off the hook because you share his same political views. If he's gonna call out one for politicizing his thread when he doesn't want it, he's gotta call out everyone, even if they are on his same side politically.

We already have the technology that could detect and deflect an asteroid from hitting the Earth. Do you have catastrophic insurance? Think of this as catastrophic insurance for all of us.

Speaking of licking, do you know that Obama actually licked Larry Sinclair's you-know-what? We have video of Sinclair exposing him. It's probably why he doesn't mind "Michelle" (Michael) Obama is a Tranny.

Asteroids have hit earth at least as many times as they have hit the moon, if its visible craters represent asteroid hits. However, earth may well have been an asteroid several trillion years ago, so someday in the next hundred billion years or so, we may get hit by an asteroid that does away with life as we know it. Our destruction, however could precede that occurrence, as we are a warlike specie, unless politicians team up with scientists to learn to use dna as an agent of change for the better.
