haha nah seriously but an interesting read

http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/asteroid_risk_041224.html

i in 45 chance

thats the highest an asteroid has ever been predicted.

Well we just have to build a Linux based laser


Seriously, though, that's messed up .

I'll be 40 when this asteroid reaches us
And what's fucked up is there's currently no way to stop this thing.
Let's hope it misses us

No , In 2012

Yay, we're all gonna die

I wouldn't mind dying as long as everyone else dies too.

I was watching a show on TV about possible ways to divert an asteroid and stop it from hitting us, and there are some plans in development. Of course, none will be ready within the next few years...

April 13, 2029 is a Friday (friday 13th?) this is probably a sick joke

and im still alive w00t

IMO this is just another Y2k thing. We're going to worry, prepare for doom, sell all our stuff and then it will miss earth buy like 40000000 light years and the scientists will be like "Whoops "...

umm this asteroid thing doesnt reallly make sense each time scientists say sth about an asteroid hitting earth was like in 2000 and it missed in i dont know how many light years, so i dont think this thing is going to happen

There is actually little chance that it will hit Earth. Even if it does, it won't be so drastic. Of course, it'll probably kill many people, but not the entire human race.

Also, I agree with WDZ.

and on top off al that some asteroids burn when it is on its way down to earth and split into million of pieces so think about that too.

im saying that if this has happened before it will probably just be another fake, anyway, if it aint hitting australia i aint worried

An asteroid hit off the coast at Harrington here last year, it made a huge thud and you could hear it from 50km away, truck drivers saw a large burning light in the sky and apparently it was almost 1km wide when it hit the atmosphere, but by the time it reached the sea (about 200m offshore) it was the size of a large rock..

WDZ i think ur gettin just a tad dramatic

WDZ is somewhat correct on the  Debris etc , but Australia it getitng here is like  1/100 chances reaching thi for   but again wh0 knows, Australia isnt as small as you might think

Originally posted by Violet

ofcourse its not small, but its not huge either

ofcourse it would affect australia still, when the tsunami hit i was on holidays and a family was taken out to sea where i was staying due to high rising tide (freaky considerin i was there the day before)

true it would of been ;, ur lucky you didnt stay there

true, i left just the day before and i was in the exact same place they were when they were taken out (fishing is hard)

yeah .. well ur lucky, some of us are lucky

was anybody from the forum in the tsunami??

doesnt look like it  

anyway back to the topic of DOOM

Yes, back on topic.
Now let's get some facts on this:

IF the meteroid (it's called "2004 MN4" btw) would hit the earth in 2029, it would probably hit us with roughly 15 km/s (54000 km/h or 33554 mph). And, according to NASA, this would be equivalent to 1480 megatons of TNT, which is 114,000 times the energy of the Hiroshima bomb !

Althouh the effects of such an impact would vary, depending on the location of impact and the angle, it would destroy an area of thousands of square kilometers but wouldn't cause an impact winter or any long lasting, global effects.

And in the end, the estimated probability of hitting the earth is just 0.004 to 2.4 percent.

Let's keep our fingers crossed and enjoy our lives as long as we can

i like those odds

i would mind , but then again i have issues when it comes to topics like this

On the bright side ill atleast get to celebrate my 42nd b'day
Where is bruce willis when u need him. Time for armmegeddon 2

We're always hearing news like this, once twice a year.  I personally think it isn't worth bothering about.  We couldnt do nothing 200 years ago when we couldnt see them /knew they existed.  And nothing went wrong.  so why bother now

$10 says they try to stop it and instead change it's course to directly at earth .

Good point Wabz, although i was reading somewhere that the world really is coming to an end.

The ozone layer is depleting, and the Tsunami was a great example. Technology is getting so great, that I believe the human society is going to destroy its self from it. My point is that the book of Revelations is starting to begin what it was written for.

sry, but this is pure bullshit

The philosopher they are talking about if probably Nostradamus, everyone knows he wrote in such unclear phrases that they could apply to anything.

Bah, I don't believe in the religious stuff. And Nostradamus? I second what andrey said.

But I do believe we'll end up heating the Earth so much, it'll be impossible to live in the open air, and we'll end up living on the underground!

Gotta love futuristic movies!

your very down to reality, thats what my mum always ses , " if it happens it happens"

Wether it will hit us or not all I can say is...live life to the full.

you cant exactly live it to the full when it gets cut of half way

Yes you can...cause if it ends then you have lived out your life.

It has a big chance on missing,  "And even as it stands with present knowledge, the chances are 97.8 percent the rock will miss Earth." And even if it doesn't miss,  some of us Are happy wit it such as WDZ & Leo, I also agree with WDZ

75% chance that it will hit a ocean if it hits earth, going by the fact that 75% of earth's surface is covered by water. but think of the tsunami

lol who is here to die in year  2026  so if you  have to die in this year bye i saw this on someone´s forum so i decided to copy and anounce it out here lol yep i want to have stars

what are you on about??

I don't wanna believe we are all gonna die so soon. I don't think we will though.

* Tasha crosses her fingers.

can we close this depressing thread

well i will go on the opposite side of the planet when i hear about that happening hope it hits George Bush

Hm...time to post some updates...

Good news
Recent, more accurate NASA observations at the Arecibo Observatory have shown that the asteroid (2004 MN4) will reach the Earth on April 13 2029, but will miss it by approx. 30.000 km (18.641 miles).
When the asteroid passes the earth, it can be seen with the naked eye, moving at 42° per hour.
An Earth or moon collision in 2029 is still ruled out.

OMG THATS GREAT NEWS, THANKYOU

Complete news:

Had the asteroid hit the Earth, I would not worry a little bit.

i am on the wrong side of asia

what side is that?

On October 9, 1992, a large fireball was seen streaking over the eastern United States, finally exploding into many pieces. In Peekskill, New York, one of the pieces struck a Chevrolet automobile owned by Michelle Knapp. Knapp was not in the car at the time, but heard the crash and ran out to her driveway to find a hole punched clear through the trunk of her car and a warm 26-pound (12-kilogram) meteorite lying under the vehicle. But things turned out well in the end -- her old and rather run-down automobile instantly became a collector’s item and later sold for tens of thousands of dollars.

i dont give a flying hoot what you all say. try and own me if you want.

I Believe the world _is_ going to end soon.

Nostradamus said the World will end in 1999 (what is 30  years anyway).

some Joan girl who predicted the President will get assasinated in the 60's (which proved to be correct) said the world would in the 80's. and the Lady in the 1500's who correctly predicted the Nazi/Hitler campaign. and the Kings of france Death time ssay's the world would end in 1993.

considering we've _humans_ have been alive for over 12k years i believe 10-30years off is not many at all.

as far as i can remeber the Mayans of 250bc predicted the world would end around this time aswell.

im gonna wait for CookieRevised to approve/dissaprove some of these texts though. (He knows all )

these are all from an 'The Worlds Secrets' book i have at my dads house. the only thing not frm that book is the Mayan prediction which we are learning about in School (dont know if its 100% correct though).

thats the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard , i hope cookie revised does come around and prove it wrong , im just glad we wont get hit,i believe in scientific proof, not psychics that predict doom

ya how many psychics said that we will live long and be happy
there all so negative

and whats the Scientific explanation of Black Holes.

Psychics means nothing when blakc holes are mentioned.

a black hole can be the size of a tennis ball, and it may way 10 _million_ tons, Time is also owned by black holes

a human getting sucked through a black hole will be out the otherside (whever that may be, another galaxy/dimension or maybe even time frame), anyway that persons image will be on the black holes for over a million years.

If a black holes gets big enough. it may even 'Suck' the world up. we would all be anihilated. or even go back in time.

and Internal Combustion. Scientists have no proof of how people can simply be light on fire from inside.

Science doesent have explanations for everything.

i know that, btw i dont like to talk bout black holes, there hell freaky

black holes are mere theories, they could have complete paradise in them...

They are real, just don't know precisely what. they are?

thats true, i mean photographs from satelites are all that people have

Go back in time?

You made a good point about the size and the mass of black hole, but you forgot one important thing.
Because of the tiny size and enermous mass of a black hole, the gravity of it becomes greater too.

Before your body reaches the surface of the black hole, your body has been disintegrated into pieces.

Time traveling through a black hole is only a speculation, not a theory.

How do we know, proof, no, I could come out with a 'theory' and people may believe it, possibly, einstein has gone down in history because of a theory, so has Stephen Hawking, he even admitted that some of his theory's were wrong... they can only speculate, it may be true, but it may not be.

and the second thing, dont worry. i didnt know if anyone had actually been sucked into one. but it turns out no one has, or even have proof they exist.

Stephen Hawkings thinks they do though.

what he's saying is that nobody has ever been near a black hole, and it isnt completely impossible to travel time, i once bought this magazine saying that they may be able to tear the fabric of time, so i assume that its not completely impossible

Yeah, if that's true, that would be the sickest thing that humans ever do: doing tons of research of buliding a multizillion-dollar-light-speed spacecraft to go to the nearest black hole, which lies 1600 light years from Earth, to get nothing.

i heard something about that aswell

i have heard about the energy, i dont know where it goes though. i personally doubt it releases, because it always has gravitational pull, meaning the engery would get stuck  causing an infinite loop.

i believe they lead to another realm. they may be openings to another galaxy, creating trade routes for _**posible**_ inteligent life on planets we havent found yet.

you never know.
