COMET YU55 It is going to cross our orbital path and almost be directly in the same line and path as Earth, right along our orbital plane and orbital location around the Sun right around November 9
People used to freak about that comet Elenin, it misses us by quite a bit, but, YU55 is very close!
Many conspiracy theorists are saying the government is covering this up, that it is the end of the world, Obama knows, that Fema camps are NOT for the NOW but for THIS COMET and a collision with Earth and coffins are being distributed
Here is one of those alarmist videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udmcQq02X0E
There is a language alert for the video
I like watching these for I do NOT believe it is the end of the world, but I am a space buff, it is cool, but to see the JPL site and seeing that YU55 DOES come REAAAALLL Close to us, that is going to be a spectacular light show for a comet, one that you will be able to see with the naked eye and maybe photograph with a camera in the day time, too
Anyone else find the connection between YU55’s flyby date and Obama testing the Emergency Broadcast System on the same day SUSPICIOUS???
Hey, that’s my Dad’s 87th birthday. :)

countdown to xot.
Aww crap. LOL
Yep
End of the world?
Then we needn’t worry about anything FEMA is up to.
In the video link, the guy says that it is NOT the NWO that FEMA is buying coffins for, but this comet and it’s impact!
The EBS is tested all the time. Where did you hear that “obama is going to test it”?
Near-Earth asteroid 2005 YU55 will pass within 0.85 lunar distances from the Earth on November 8, 2011. The upcoming close approach by this relatively large 400 meter-sized, C-type asteroid presents an excellent opportunity for synergistic ground-based observations including optical, near infrared and radar data. The attached animated illustration shows the Earth and moon flyby geometry for November 8th and 9th when the object will reach a visual brightness of 11th magnitude and should be easily visible to observers in the northern and southern hemispheres. The closest approach to Earth and the Moon will be respectively 0.00217 AU and 0.00160 AU on 2011 November 8 at 23:28 and November 9 at 07:13 UT.

Since the asteroid will approach the Earth from the sunward direction, it will be a daylight object until the time of closest approach. The best time for new ground-based optical and infrared observations will be late in the day on November 8, after 21:00 hours UT from the eastern Atlantic and western Africa zone. A few hours after its close Earth approach, it will become generally accessible for optical and near-IR observations but will provide a challenging target because of its rapid motion across the sky.

“Although classified as a potentially hazardous object, 2005 YU55 poses no threat of an Earth collision over at least the next 100 years”

They’re having a nationwide simultaneous test that they haven’t had before. I personally don’t like it but I don’t think its a big deal.
Maybe Beck will be free that day!
Another day another comet collision story
All the idiots agonizing over AGW, I worry about close-shavers and the atmosphere. You can’t tell me a galactic .50cal nearly grazing the earth doesn’t have any impact on it.
Gosh, you didn’t hear??
from an e-mail I got for a writer for Human Events:
A retired U.S. army intelligence officer told me that this is unprecedented - a complete NATIONAL black-out of ALL broadcast media throughout the country during the daytime. Normally, Emergency Alert System tests are conducted by FCC licensed broadcasters in the dead of night. (Consider: Even following the Kennedy assassination, NOTHING like this was scheduled).
