Well, I'd imagine a huge shockwave would circle the globe and destroy alot of stuff............tsunamis, Earth's crust would probably crack. I could see a large enough one possibly hit with so much force it splits the planet.

you will know.

enough people watch the stars, it would get out.

Erusea throws a fit over having to accept refugees, starting the Continental War and the formation of ISAF.

Yes, iirc the closest asteroid was found by amateurs.

@Star_Scream

Sorry 12800 years ago.

Just search 12800 meteor strike 12800 years ago. Lots of evidence.

That russian strike on 1907 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunguska_event
Is part of the same meteor strike from 12800 years ago we go through the belt 2x a year .

Pretty cool to watch every fall here.

I watched the movie "Don't Look Up" about this very thing.

It's Trumps fault but we get over it.

It's the end of the world as we know it. And I feel fine.

It depends.  As long as it doesn’t punch a hole clear through the earth the people closest to the edges should have time to make it to the other side. Of course this side will be destroyed with no sun and ash everywhere the other side should be relatively pristine. The people who make it there will have to domesticate the dinosaurs so pretty much like the Flinstones.

ETA that’s the beauty of the flat earth. There’s always the other side to go to if this one gets real fucked up.

I would dive a GMC Jimmy that I overpaid for as I searched for Michelob and Chivas Reagal as I fought off Cannibals from L.A.

Everyone dies.  Cause of death Covid19.

take a guess - you will never see the result so who cares amiright

Yeah. Nah brah. The citations are really thin on that and it seems to reference itself.

Thinking about it now, If a big enough asteroid hit the earth.


Wouldn't an oxygen sink be created that would suck most of the oxygen out of the atmosphere?.

Either way we are fucked. Atmosphere cooking us, or atmosphere getting sucked into space and we all suffocate/freeze to death simultaneously.

I'm not ssying we won't get our hair mussed, maybe 4-5 billion dead depending on the breaks..

The super rich and powerful would run into there super deep luxery shelter and laugh watching video from cameras around the world showing the spectacle of death and destruction. All the time clueless that it is all a fake, a elaborate ruse to get them to just go away.

That video is a 500 km rock. The one that smokes the dinosaurs was 10 km.

Nothing survives a 500. At least at 10 some mammals and sealife lived

It's the internet feel free to do your own search but the facts are pointing to it..they have a team of 60 science / geologists doing the study.

Pretty sure it's where the great flood stories are coming from.
And where Atlantis went.

@Star_Scream

Personally, I’d rather be instantly incinerated than live through, “The Road.”

It would put an end to Covid

As someone pointed out above:

The Chicxulub crater (IPA: [t?ik?u'lub]) is an impact crater buried underneath the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico.[3] Its center is offshore near the communities of Chicxulub Puerto and Chicxulub Pueblo, after which the crater is named.[4] It was formed when a large asteroid, about 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) in diameter, struck the Earth.[5] The date of the impact coincides precisely with the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary (commonly known as the "K–Pg boundary"), slightly more than 66 million years ago,[2] and a widely accepted theory is that worldwide climate disruption from the event was the cause of the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, a mass extinction in which 75% of plant and animal species on Earth became extinct, including all non-avian dinosaurs.

Answer here

Distance from Impact: 10700.00 km ( = 6640.00 miles )
Projectile diameter: 16.10 km ( = 9.99 miles )
Projectile Density: 11343 kg/m3
Impact Velocity: 72.00 km per second ( = 44.70 miles per second ) (Your chosen velocity is higher than the maximum for an object orbiting the sun)
Impact Angle: 45 degrees
Target Density: 2500 kg/m3
Target Type: Sedimentary Rock
Energy:

Energy before atmospheric entry: 6.42 x 1025 Joules = 1.53 x 1010 MegaTons TNT
The average interval between impacts of this size is longer than the Earth's age.
Such impacts could only occur during the accumulation of the Earth, between 4.5 and 4 billion years ago.
Major Global Changes:

The Earth is not strongly disturbed by the impact and loses negligible mass.
The impact does not make a noticeable change in the tilt of Earth's axis (< 5 hundreths of a degree).
Depending on the direction and location of impact, the collision may cause a change in the length of the day of up to 98.4 milliseconds.
The impact does not shift the Earth's orbit noticeably.
Crater Dimensions:

What does this mean?


Transient Crater Diameter: 272 km ( = 169 miles )
Transient Crater Depth: 96.1 km ( = 59.7 miles )

Final Crater Diameter: 566 km ( = 352 miles )
Final Crater Depth: 1.99 km ( = 1.24 miles )
The crater formed is a complex crater.
The volume of the target melted or vaporized is 404000 km3 = 96900 miles3
Roughly half the melt remains in the crater, where its average thickness is 6.97 km ( = 4.33 miles ).
Thermal Radiation:

What does this mean?


The fireball is below the horizon. There is no direct thermal radiation.
Seismic Effects:

What does this mean?


The major seismic shaking will arrive approximately 35.7 minutes after impact.
Richter Scale Magnitude: 11.4 (This is greater than any earthquake in recorded history)
Mercalli Scale Intensity at a distance of 10695.23 km:

IV. Felt indoors by many, outdoors by few during the day. At night, some awakened. Dishes, windows, doors disturbed; walls make cracking sound. Sensation like heavy truck striking building. Standing motor cars rocked noticeably.

V. Felt by nearly everyone; many awakened. Some dishes, windows broken. Unstable objects overturned. Pendulum clocks may stop.

Ejecta:

What does this mean?


Little rocky ejecta reaches this site; fallout is dominated by condensed vapor from the projectile.

Air Blast:

What does this mean?


The air blast will arrive approximately 9 hours after impact.
Peak Overpressure: 35300 Pa = 0.353 bars = 5.01 psi
Max wind velocity: 72.9 m/s = 163 mph
Sound Intensity: 91 dB (May cause ear pain)
Damage Description:

Wood frame buildings will almost completely collapse.

Glass windows will shatter.

Up to 90 percent of trees blown down; remainder stripped of branches and leaves.

Golf clap.. well done.

If it hits China the world would reset for free.

Damage to the planet itself? Minimal. To affect the planet would require something the size of the moon. And then? The earth resettles with two moons and it keeps going on.

The cool thing about Astronomy is you can't hide what you find.

One could only pray such a thing were to happen

I did. I saw very little hard work into this one. Who are the "60 science/geologists"?

I'm a scienceologist, so I can confidently tell you that it would be like 9-11 x Y2K x Tonga.

Nobody can calculate a number that high, but it's over 9000.

Yer def gonna die, fren.

In most asteroid disaster movies the final giant asteroid is seen rumbling overhead and disappearing over the horizon before impact. But a giant asteroid would streak in just as fast as the meteors we see every night, correct?  Just a much bigger event at the end.

I like this guy.

It's what keeps the earth alive. Pest control.

You are not wrong.

Just the video shared is gonna kill anything but maybe some bacteria.

500 km is gonna be a reset button on a planet. Not just some species

I will have to look up the vroup again.
They are self funded for the last 16 years if i remember right and based mostly out of Canada yet are the working group is scattered around fhe world.

Read it and a few other articles a few years back looking up other asteroid meteor impacts and ran across it by chance.
They were talking about the dust & soot layer left from the dino extintion astroind and found a closer top layer that points to the strike 12800 years ago.
Now they are thinking it was a lot bigger then they thought since this 2nd layer is showing up worldside.

Big enuff, new ice age.

The Day the Dinosaurs Died – Minute by Minute

The earth would barely get her hair mussed.    

Higher life forms will be kilt off ruthlessly.  

Those “living dinosaurs” like Alligators and Turtles? they'll be fine, just like the last couple times.

Who would care?

Then Putin pushes buttons.

I feel ya man.

It won't my problem.

We'd probably all fucking die.  If not immediately then fairly soon after.

Unless the asteroid was the size of the Moon, the globe would not suffer greatly. Might make a tiny, tiny change in the orbital velocity or spin. But nothing human senses could register. Might be an uptick in...seismic...activity for  a while, and tsunamis would circle the planet several times.

A lot depends on size and location of impact, but pretty much this

The survivors would be cast in the movie ‘The Road”
