COMET YU55: It's the end of the world as we know it thread #2: Nov 9
NASA Jet Propulsion laboratory and YouTube ^ | 10/30/2011 | RaceBannon

Check out this website: http://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/sbdb.cgi?sstr=2005%20YU55;orb=1;cov=0;log=0;cad=0#orb

you need JAVA installed to view the app

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

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

It's the next sentence that interests me:

However, this will be the closest approach to date by an object this large that we know about in advance and an event of this type will not happen again until 2028 when asteroid (153814) 2001 WN5 will pass to within 0.6 lunar distances.

It's what we DON'T know about in advance that should worry us.

“They” are doing some sort of testing that will supposedly shut down tv and radio broadcasts for 2 minutes. It’s not going to be the normal beeeeeeeeep “this is only a test” thing. It’s even been announced by the msm and on tv as a PSA commercial.

My tin foil hat tells me this is a dry run for Hussein’s October Surprise (or as early as next spring) when he declares himself Grand High Poobah of All the Lands and cancels elections.

Love that book. A bit too trite at times, but a pretty good description of how "the world as we know it" could end IMHO.

Ok, so the end of the world didn’t end again the other day or a few months ago. Neither satellite or their space junk landed on my head. Are my odds getting worse now that this comet’s chunks might head this way? The sky really is falling!!!!

“Reports that say that something hasn’t happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns — the ones we don’t know we don’t know.”

Do you really think that would fly? What do you think any such leader’s life expediency would be?

Race, I’m interested in any comets that become visible. Do you have any info on whether this comet will be visible? And if decide to have a comet ping list, I want on!

Oops - I was excited about seeing a comet so I asked you before reading to the end!!!

Anyway, if you get more info I’m all ears (or eyes), or maybe do a keyword people can search for.

Most news reports say it’s a large asteroid and not a comet. That means not much of a celestial show. But if it hits the earth it’s not going to make much difference.

Every time they tell us it’s TEOTWAWKI, I buy a pint of coffee ice-cream, figuring it will be my last meal. I’ve gained four pounds since May.
