    It's called the roche limit. But as it turns out, Jupiter's very low density means that it's possible that the earth would actually collide with the (upper athmosphere of) Jupiter before passing inside the roche limit. So eh, whatever. I guess that if you can move Jupiter, you can just make it collide with the earth instead. That'll off the planet nicely. Of course, something much smaller, like, say, Mars, would do the trick too. But Mars might actually be more difficult to move. No fusion candle.

    You've never triple jumped in mid-air? Boy howdy you've been missing out
  • BlackMageBlackMage [citation needed] Join Date: 2003-06-18 Member: 17474Members, Constellation
    you jump, then you grab your pants and throw them up into the air, you follow them. if you're good you can do this two or three times. for practice, try jumping off of something tall (down a stairwell, into an elevator shaft, off a balcony) to work on your timing and prove darwin right.

    dont you see?

    k and m are really close together on the keyboard.

    So when there are no more kittens, the next thing to go missing will be mittens <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" />

    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Anyway, that impact event isn't nearly big enough to cause an armageddon type event. Although I hate to resort to an unsourced wikipedia 'fact' "the body that caused the Chicxulub crater in Mexico is estimated to have released the equivalent of as much as 190,000 gigatons of TNT." Meaning the impact event in the Yucatan which is suspected of killing off the dinosaurs is susptected to have been 10,000x more powerful than this asteroid's potential (Wikipedia's gigaton, also check out the Tunguska event, but I'm unable to find the energy output of it).<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    I always thought we would be killed off by one of those crazy mass <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinction_event" target="_blank">extinctions</a> that happens to cycle every few million years, like the Permian period with it's ridiculous ~80% species kill rate. Some people seem to think all of humanity is contained inside one of these periods, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocene_extinction_event" target="_blank">Holocene extinction event</a>.

    Brebl. We'll endure. We're resilient. Just like rats. Or cockroaches. Or vomit stains on your new carpet.
    Come to think of it, nothing good lasts. :o

    If you jump in the right way you can do it so the earth doesn't notice, then you can go really high before it catches up!

  • SteveRSteveR Join Date: 2006-12-25 Member: 59239Members, Constellation
    nasa doesn't know about all the asteroids. An asteroid could slam straight into our planet without ANY warning. There's some kind of assumption from deep impact and Armageddon movies that we know exactly whats going on out there. Who's always looking? Nasa, sure they try but can't look at everything all the time.

    And 6 billion years from now this planet will go the same way of venus. Choked volatile gas ball. Hopefully humanity will invent something to leave planets and colonise others, no matter how slow the journey.
  • eedioteediot Join Date: 2003-02-24 Member: 13903Members
    An asteroid COULD, sure. We're at more risk from super-volcanoes at the moment. The point is that the probability of it happening is so small that it's not really worth getting riled up about.

    That's not to say that we shouldn't try to develop ways to protect ourselves against asteroids in the future, but it should be more general purpose instead of an ill-advised and underdeveloped "global asteroid defence net".

    I'm betting something like perverse atmosphere shift will happen. Remember back really long ago, when the air had no oxygen? Well, all these microbes got the bright idea to start mass production of oxygen. By doing this, they forever altered the atmosphere of the Earth.

    Yes, and the air that we once drew into our lungs, will then be pure thick butter.

    I think the most important question we must ask ourselves is will this butter be in a liquid, solid, or semi-solid form? Because if we're talking about liquid butter, my lungs are way ahead of the curve...
