Some asteroid may collide with Earth in September 2004!

@morningstar: well i don't know too much about asteroids and all that, but i know that they go really fast, order of magnitudes faster than satellite parts
that's why they burn more when they hit the atmosphere
but still, even if a little rock makes it, it'll still be very speedy so it can impact very hard

about collision hazards monitorings, i read somwhere that there is monitoring 24/7, and from a lot of sources too
but it's not like just as simple as a a radar detecting an airplane on earth
in space you don't only have 360 degrees to watch out from; things can come from just about any possible direction; up, down, the rear, forward, the sides, and any combination of those
that makes it all the more difficult to detect incoming objects

The last scare, the one that passed within 150,000 miles we only didn't see until 3 or 4 days before it shot past us.

If there is only 3 or 4 days notification, there's not much you can do but hope it misses your continent. :loco:
 
if it actually hits, i want you to know i wub you all. :lol:

well, ok, not really, just a few people on this thread: i wub xeno and steve and violet for old time's sake. and mourningstar for some different old time's sake. and manuel, tb666 and spiritcrusher are - admittedly - sappy enough to make me wub them for the fucking sake of it. :p

asteroids are now allowed to come.
 
If it hits, I want you to know that in the anarchic and crumbled world that will exist in the aftermath, I will be available to help repopulate the lands and rebuild civilization. And when I say I want 'you' to know that, 'you' should only be read to mean attractive women.
 
before the world ends . . .i want. . .to have crazy animal planet sex with someone from this forum. . .:lol: :p

yaaaaay rahvin loves me! i can die happily now :dopey:

if its going to hit, i would make an elaborate, succesful scheme to kidnapp jk rowling and make her tell me how harry potter ends. and since im going to be able to pull that off, ill probably kidnapp bands i always wanted to see live and make them play for me. love would be nice, too.

i cant wait :D

lol, now i have this mental image of all the harry potter fans in their coffin, lifting they're head to listen to how the story ends, so that they can finally rest in peace.
and i also think about my grandmother: she watches beautiful almost every day, and she'll never know how many people brooke will end up having slept with :tickled:
 
Nono.. look, it's the other way round, I want to kidnap you, so I'll be the one looking for you.. except for that you WANT to be kidnapped.. well.. if you ask nicely.. I think I could do that :)
