   The science fiction isn't how to stop the asteroid, it's how to get humanity to cooperate and work together

   We have observed that earth have tilted by 10-15 degree towards South . Rotating towards closer to the Sun and the Moon. Causing the so call climate change…..
   Earth rotation tilting causing the Earth to rotate into the path of the Asteroid path….
   Scientists should have observed the pattern of EL Nino and EL Nine have changed causing a new term Climate Change. But none of us did not get to the root of the problem blaming on fossil energy to be the cause but replace with electrical driven cars causing more harm to environment than saving the emissions of the fossil energy ….
   Look at the bombing of Ukraine and bombing against Israel causing environmental hazard…
   Have anyone observed that since 2025 (9) … natural disasters never experience before start with Fires… typhoon, earthquakes , volcanoes eruption, extinct volcanoes eruption , landslides… sink holes..floods .. land sinking everywhere , new land emerges …. Never experience these continuous catastrophe happening….
   Will Asteroids strike earth … by calculating.. this senecio will come true….
   To resolve the problem … stop War… let there be Peace …stop polluting the air with military exercise …,

   .. doesn’t need a rocket scientists to figure out all these…. Just that Reuther leaders interested in enriching themselves at the present moment… corrupt to the core.. by stimulating the sentiments feeling of a common citizens ….
   God Forbid …
   God. Create Human destroy…. Only prophecies been predicted long long ago ….

   Thoughts for 2026 (1) …

   Fascinatingly terrifying.
   Imagine one spaceship->so many possibilities for the attempt to go wrong; like even a comet or something hitting the rocket or requiring it to deviate course which makes the astronauts waste precious time.

    Humanity or just advanced intelligent life similar to us, is basically a Roguelike. If there is a planet out there capable of sustaining life, that planet is still no exception that there is a chance that one day, a killer asteroid will hit it, factory resetting it. Essentially ending your run thus all your progress is lost and you have to start from scratch. So like really it’s a race to leveling up and making a build that can defend your species from this planet destroyer.

    What are the odds that it is not spinning? Hitting the same place would be borderline impossible if it spins anything at all.

    what if asteroids were just attacks from other civilisations and they just keep on missing

    Another interesting idea would be to consider how close asteroids could come to Earth and the amount of destruction they could cause by passing very closely by, without actually hitting the planet. There could be just a few kilometres between Earth and the asteroid.

    Now do Melancholia, where the earth falls int a rogue gas giant like a waterdrop in a bucket. Existentially horrifying, falling while you have your feet on the ground. Nowhere to run. I assume we'd loose the atmosphere before we saw much. But imagine if you were alive for the fall?

    No we really can't.
    We would need many months of warning. There wouldn't be enough prep time. Doubt we would even try.
