Dude, you better not Wie in the Bong
Bull.. it would be like a bowling ball hit by a BB 5 miles away..
No danger to earth..
Maybe the Mayans knew what they were talkin’ about?
Hi def imagery of the impact could re-ignite the space program.
Successful selling always involves emotion. Terror is an excellent selling tool.
If we taxed the rich more...it won’t hit Mars.../s
We already HAVE a civilization-killer. It’s called “Islam”
Uh oh! I think I know what’s going to replace global warming. I’m sure higher taxes will fix it though.
“If it was coming straight at us (no more or less likely than it coming straight at Mars)”
Actually a bit more likely to hit us, as we’re a bigger target.
I also wonder if any Democrats will pick up on a pattern if we see a comet smash into Jupiter, and then another smash into Mars 20 years later.
There is some evidence that the KT Impact and other big ones were primarily comets.
Some large object may be knocking numbers of bodies loose in the Oort Cloud changing their orbits and sending them to the inner Solar System. There appears to be a cycle of bombardment of Earth with a period of about 33 million years.
KT was about 65M yrs ago.
If this hypotheses is correct, we are due for a bombardment. Maybe the recent Russian blast was just a taste of what is to come.
I think I need to publish my treatise on how to survive an ELE (Extinction Level Event).
It can be done.
“That uncertainty is likely to be cleared up over the next few months,...”
By who, the East Anglia scientists?
It may have already happened to Mars, several thousand years ago, in early but historic times. Read “Worlds In Collision” by Immanuel Velikovsky (1950) for an interesting theory.
