Starting on my bunker today.
Are they sure this isn’t just the Tesla Roadster with Starman at the wheel?
Looking forward to it.
Not on my Bingo card.
In physics, specifically classical mechanics, the three-body problem is to take the initial positions and velocities (or momenta) of three point masses that orbit each other in space and calculate their subsequent trajectories using Newton's laws of motion and Newton's law of universal gravitation.And we sure have "n" bodies circulating in the solar system.Unlike the two-body problem, the three-body problem has no general closed-form solution, meaning there is no equation that always solves it. When three bodies orbit each other, the resulting dynamical system is chaotic for most initial conditions. Because there are no solvable equations for most three-body systems, the only way to predict the motions of the bodies is to estimate them using numerical methods.
The three-body problem is a special case of the n-body problem. Historically, the first specific three-body problem to receive extended study was the one involving the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. In an extended modern sense, a three-body problem is any problem in classical mechanics or quantum mechanics that models the motion of three particles.
Ok...lets get some nukes or Ben Afleck with a drill up there...
Another consequence of global climate change, therefore Trump’s fault.
One of my favorite disaster movies is now “Greenland”. When I went out and looked at that last comet we saw...that immediately came to mind!
Asteroid 2032 - Just End It Already!
Asteroid fear porn.
Huh. Just about the same size as Tunguska. Might make a good candidate for another “nudge” experiment, maybe using some other technique than an impactor.
One question: Is the chance of an impact in 2032 1.2%, with other passes being at lower odds, or is the chance of an impact between now and 2074 1.2%? Those are rather different things, if you see what I mean.
Well, we can hope.............
Will it hit Newscum`s house?
Were it to hit a major city in China, would democrats fork over $8-10T of money they don’t have for recovery efforts?
