So the internet says we're gonna be hit by a big old asteroid on 24-25 September. Supposedly governments have been nuking the heck out of the thing without much luck. What does /sci/ think of this?

>Sept 17 Important Update – Space Detonation(s):
>A fresh sighting, of a short lived bright illumination, has been confirmed. The dimensions and shape of the bright illumination indicates a wide debris field, as it had an oblong and rough shape & tilted (i.e. debris field shape tilted with respect to the horizon).
>This sighting was less than 2 days ago. A followup of the exact location 24hrs later confirmed that the illumination was not present (not an artifact).
>It is believed that this illumination was from a distant space detonation of a direct hit of the “object”. However, this was not the first “detonation” … information and data indicate 3 and possibly 4 space detonations have occurred.

>Earth Referenced coordinates:
>The direction of this illuminated “debris field” was in the Earth’s northern hemisphere view, observed at sunrise Pacific Daylight Time (U.S. PDT), at an angle – to the stars – of approximately 42 degrees north (earth plane Latitude intersecting to object).
>The location was from the northern Pacific Coast Range, to the nearest town, is 45° 35′ 11″ N 123° 12′ 53″ W. This data confirms that the object is approaching from a sun light illuminated direction (from a low angle “sun approach”).

>Two “deflection” detonations:
Tracking data of this object has shown two distinct changes in its vector trajectory eight days ago and thirteen days ago. The prior nine+ days had a consistent and straight trajectory – minus a very small arc.
>Both of these trajectory changes, considered “deflection detonations”, were in the same direction (indicating – “to vector the object on a path away from earth”).
(note: the indicator that these were “nuclear surface detonations”, for deflection, is due to the subsequent degree of change in direction relative to the size of the object.)
>The first “deflection detonation” resulted in a change in a slight, but a consistent new vector heading.
>The second “deflection detonation” (approximately 5 days later) was more dramatic with nearly 3 times greater resulting vector heading change compared to the first.
>Following the second deflection, the object started a curve in its direction back towards earth, most likely from it getting closer and experiencing the influence of earth’s gravity well.

>> No.8361326

>Earth intercept date:
>With all of the recent deltaV (velocity) changes induced into the “object”, it will require further observation to provide a new “best estimate”.
>Some slowing had been observed, and was later confirmed to be caused by the first deflection detonation. A calculation estimate of this first slight slowing, shifted the earth intercept solution(s) from Sept 25 out to up to a week.
>However, with the additional deflection detonations, the direct hit detonations, and the new acceleration into earth’s gravity well, this will create an uncertainty that can only be determined by days of new observational information/data.
>Note: A possibility exists that the illumination of a wide distribution of the debris may give a very short advance warning, even in the daytime – depending on clear skies.

>Early Asteroid fragment(s) may arrive sooner from Space Detonation “deflection attempts”
>It is very possible that an early arrival of an asteroid fragment or fragments may occur days sooner than the main body of the larger pieces of the asteroid.
>This would be from the two prior “deflection detonations” (see Sept 17 update). A “deflection” detonation would be on the side of the asteroid at a desired deflection angle to the heading of the asteroid.
>The degree of movement, or deflection result of the object, after the detonation* likely would eject fragments at a lateral angle or angles at a higher velocity than the velocity of the main body.
>This boost of momentum to the fragment or fragments would be equal to (main object velocity + energy boost in momentum/speed to fragment/fragments) based on the energy transfer & dislodge resistance of the detonation*
>The world should watch for such asteroid/meteor events days prior to the original estimated Sept 25 date. This could serve as an early warning to the world and the people that the main body of the asteroid is to follow.

The problem here is we do not have any information, true information or given by someone with some credibility, we only have a religious site with a person saying that messages arrive some course worker NASA which gives us an apocalyptic message that would come in less than 10 days.

That involves science because it is an asteroid that allegedly killed us, the "NASA worker" does not give any more information only tells us that comes from the direction of the sun and therefore is invisible to normal telescopes.

As always, and most likely this is false, but this take a lot of strength from the fact that "a worker of NASA," says it's real.

There is no reasoning. A claim was made, no evidence was offered to back it up, the claim was dismissed.

Aside from that, the story is silly. It involves an asteroid coming from the direction of the sun crossing 2AU in 3 months, being intercepted 3 times by spacecraft from earth each of which detonated a nuclear device on or near the object. The detonations somehow "slowed down" the object so that it will still impact the earth but take longer to do so than it would have originally.

None of that is plausible and some of it is absurd

Lens flare is a thing, so if you don't take the sentence so literally. It is plausible.

>intercepted 3 times by spacecraft from earth each of which detonated a nuclear device on or near the object
This also seems plausible depending on how far the asteroid was at the time of intercept. Again, I am not familiar with how accurate we can intercept asteroids.

I do not follow. However, I do know that the current speed of such an asteroid would likely be lower than the average speed over the past three months (2/3 AU per month) if it is to collide within the week (due to work done by the sun on the asteroid). A redirect would have a lot more of an impact on the asteroids momentum at lower speeds.

If something's far enough off, you only have to change it's angle of approach by a few degrees. Also a direct hit or near hit is going to vaporize material and rapidly heat the surface of the object, resulting in jets of debris and hot gas being vented form the surface. Which gives it a push.

That's in theory. I have no idea how many hits it would take, and that would depend on how massive the object was and how far away/how fast it was traveling.

As a representative of the space agencies of the world, we are deeply sorry about this. Turns out it is a really bad idea to send a bunch of oil drillers to an asteroid rather than train astronauts to be oil drillers.

Their failure to adapt to microgravity conditions was a direct contributor to the redirection mission's failure. All of them had really bad cases of space adaption syndrome, we're talking as bad as Jake Garn here. If we weren't going extinct, this would be worth investigating further.

We must admit though, some of their deaths were pretty funny in a dark sort of way. We will be sure to release a death montage sped up and sync'd to Benny Hill music a day before impact.

We of the PR department also cordially invite you take part in our global 'end of the world orgy,' where we will fuck ourselves to death. My boss says I'm not supposed to post this, but fuck it who cares we're all gonna die.

Probably fucking not; that 'news' article is horse shit. But that being said, there is always a VERY MINUTE chance that an asteroid could be coming toward us from the direction of the Sun and it would be impossible to detect.

Distance/Location of Asteroid:

The first intercept and nuclear bomb detonation on the Asteroid was close to 2.365 LD (Lunar Distance) away. The slow relative closing velocity provided an opportune rocket intercept & mitigation potential due to this speed.

Since the series of multiple nuclear detonations, the angle of the asteroid, relative to the earth’s ecliptic, has been deflected from 27.5 degrees to its current position of 16 degrees and has been slowed significantly (as of Sep 18).

(note:this translates to near 39.45 degrees North in Latitude with respect to Earth’s equator). The Asteroid is in the sunlight side of the hemisphere of the Earth.

It was a significant impact. It could have been 4x as big and we still would have never seen it. The possibility of being struck by an unobserved world ending asteroid is there, however improbable. If you deny it could happen you are clearly retarded.

Do you know how fucking massive an astronomical unit is? And how much fucking energy it takes to travel? If we were to detonate anything, it would not be on the other side of the fucking sun all secret like. If there is actually evidence of what appear to be detonations, that shit happens all the time in space. Massive rocks crashing into eachother isn't quiet. If it were of importance, it would be recognized. And the first people to hear about it are not going to be ridiculous religious fanatics whose beliefs aren't even based on evidence. This is stupid as shit. Be self aware for fucks sake, be critical of what you believe. if we could map out a trajectory to even be aware of danger, we would know a lot of physical properties. Mass, make-up, danger potential. We have teams of people around the clock looking for near earth asteroids. They'd fucking know. Get out of here with your bullshit excuse for a claim.
>ironically calling /sci/ open-minded
This should show you exactly how fucking ridiculous and unfounded your beliefs are when no one who has passion for science and knowledge agrees at all. Most of us on here talked about the idea, thought it through, looked at the evidence, and determined it was bullshit. Being open minded isn't equal to accepting different ideas. It's equal to entertaining the idea. I entertained the original post and it wasn't worth the time.

Simple trigonometry provides a solution to a conversion of astronomical coordinates using the provided latitudinal sighting reference position, the angle of intersect to the object, the LD revealed in the prior updates, and an elevation of 10 degrees above the horizon at 6:55:24 PDT. If a person has been following the updates, the last unknown parameter in the incoming of the “object” necessitated a “sighting”. Thus once a highly accurate and detailed sighting was reported, then the last parameter was identified. In addition, again, if a person has been following the updates, they would recognize that there has been multiple noted angular changes in the trajectory – simultaneous to noted slowing (velocity change).
However, to provide precision level astronomical coordinates, in a series of sightings to determine a trajectory and/or new changes, would require an ability to observe this object from the “sun light” side of the hemisphere (using any terrestrial based telescope*). Thus, the only parameters that could be determined and provided were those from a “flash type of sighting” merged with the data at the time of the sighting. It was very providential that a high quality sighting occurred and that the person was able to contact and provide this information.
It is recognized that the Amateur Astronomical community are very skilled, dedicated, and have quality state-of-the-art equipment, including sophisticated computational capabilities.

I live in Florida about 400 miles from Kennedy Space Center. When they do a launch I can go outside and watch it. The larger the launch vehicle (rocket) the further away you can see it. There are historical account of Siberian rocket launches being seen by the naked eye in Europe. During the lunar mission amateur astronomers watched the Apollo vehicles in flight.

So assuming we are launching a rocket from the surface that can intercept a asteroid approaching earth much further away than the moon why do people not see it? A large launch like that would be visible over thousands of miles radius. At sea it would be visible even further.

The SpaceX launches are visible up and down the eastern seaboard. http://www.space.com/28164-spacex-rocket-launch-east-coast-visibility.html

So has anyone seen any launches? Have any astronomers professional or amateur seen anything? Has any reputable rumors of launch facilities and vehicles surfaced? Courtesy of the internet we have much better communications, there are twitter channels for everything. The US and Russian government "secret" spy satellites are watched from launch and into orbit by amateurs!

OP, genuine question, not trying to roast ur ass. how will your world view change when nothing becomes of this impending doomsday event, like every other impending doomsday event thus far? likely no one here, including you, knows enough about astronomical object tracking nor has the technological means to verify this claim. so we have to rely on experts in the field who actually can verify the claim. seeing as how no actual experts in the field have chimed in about a doomsday asteroid (like this), i think it's safe to assume it's just a bogus claim, like the 10 million other conspiracies and bullshit that is made up every single day on the internet. now the useless philosophers will scream "appeal to authority!", and sure that might be the case, but we have no other accurate means of verifying it for ourselves. you can sit at the computer all day, thinking that you are unraveling the mystery, but more likely, you are fooling yourself into thinking that you have stumbled upon good information. you don't have enough knowledge about the field to determine whether these claims are bullshit, so you come here. we don't have the know-how and instruments needed either. so, when this thing blows over like everything else does, will you still have this world-view that you can rely on random internet blogs for scientific claims?
