Oh my, just look at the time.
Logan Long
Practically everything was recorded as an omen of doom in antiquity because people were dying literally all the time.
Brayden Butler
Who else remembers Halle Bopp here? That gave us... Heavens Gate.
Aiden Martinez
There was another one in the 90's with some Japanese name I think also.

Comet Atlas could be visible until June. Virginia has a lockdown until June.
Luke Wilson
I still cannot fathom how an asteroid, say 4km in diameter can cause so much damage. I understand that material and velocity of the object come into consideration but an object of that size is just a speck of dust when comparing it to the size of our planet.
Liam Barnes
Then there's a trailer for this shit

Comparatively the atmosphere we live in is only paper thin.
Nathaniel Adams
Space isn't real. They're going to nuke something.
Daniel Bell
a killing bolt
Aaron Edwards
Nukes aren't real.
Isaiah Nguyen
Fuck you're right. I have no idea what is happening anymore.
Liam Torres
Hyakutake probably misspelled it but yeah. Its tail was one of the longest ever recorded.
Caleb Mitchell
can OP please at least tell the goyim on this board that this fucker has an atmosphere 2-5x the size of jupiter (the biggest planet in our solar system)
Benjamin Sanchez
I never thought about comets having color. Is this pic accurate or enhanced? are they all the same color?
>stilled bummed about halley's
Caleb Murphy
Yup its coma is that large. Its still nothing like Comet Holmes from 2007. Its coma was briefly larger than the sun.
Bentley Kelly
so you are telling me after scamrona this is the next nothingburger?
Levi Reed
They actually do have that greenish hue. It has to do with the content of the gasses they're releasing. IIRC its largely cyanogenic ones.
>pic related Q2 lovejoy from 2014 I took with my cheapo DSLR and a kit lens. Took a bunch of pics to stack but it was worth it.
I'm hoping this comet becomes nice and bright before I ship off to BMT for the AF in May because it looks promising.
Christopher Young
where did you get your knowledge?
are you hobby astrofaggot?
Jaxson Russell
No, we're way past due for a decent comet desu. The nucleus appears pretty diffuse though so its likely to break up on its close approach to the sun but if it doesn't then the rate of brightening may put on a nice show.
Hopefully its not a repeat of that shitshow comet ison. I'm still butthurt over that fail
Elijah White
Just a hobby. I went full turbo autist back in 2012-2013 and have just been kinda sitting back waiting for another good comet to image. I just wish I could afford a nice tracking setup because using a tripod and just taking bursts and adjusting every few pics is a pain in the ass.
There's a ton I don't know but I like to think I have a decent working knowledge.
Noah Adams
nice.
what do you think about the nigerian comet?
what happened here and why did the government at first say it was an explosion from something else?
and why did NASA say before that the asteroid will safe pass earth?
what the fuck happened here and why does nobody talk about this?
Carson Myers
Finally someone that knows. Comets at big omens for death and destruction. We're all basically fucked and it's the end happening right now.
Ethan Murphy
*nigerian meteorite
Cameron Brooks
i saw a quote from an engineer who looked at it who said there were strange metal artifacts scattered around the crash site
Jacob Ward
I actually hadn't even heard of it until today. I heard it took out a few buidings. It would be interesting to see if anyone got some video of it. It would have probably been pretty damned bright.
One source mentioned an incident here in the US the same night but I'm not sure what they were referring to.
Oliver Murphy
fun fact: the great Chicago fire of 1871 (that caused firestorms from the Dakotas all the way east to the Azores and Portugal) was caused by Earth passing through a comet's tail
I saw something that said if the comet breaks apart and we pass through the wreckage then there might be another great flood because of all the water locked in the comet's ice
just passing on some fun scenarios for yall
Parker Reyes
its not the size of the comet, its the size of the tail and what is dragged along it.
Juan Rodriguez
Maybe a satellite re-entry?
Hunter Roberts
so it was a bomb or something else?
Brody Richardson
wasn't hanks in some atlas movie?
are the timelines converging?
Jason Bell
>why does nobody talk about this?
None of my favorite youtube astronomers have acknowledged it.
Ethan Myers
and comparatively, the crust we live on is even thinner than that.
Angel Flores
Meteorites are usually made of some pretty rare metals
Maybe but it would have to be a pretty big or dense sattelite to make it through the atmosphere
Eli Morgan
no, bro.
this one is about the asteroid in april, not about a comet.
this ones actual size is really 4km, and that's fucking huge
Charles Jones
you are talking about comet atlas right? its already been in our solar system since jan
Christian Edwards
The Preshtigo fire is still the record holder for highest death toll in a wildfire in the US.
Jason Sullivan
That's a nice mass grave you have there, it's just missing one thing.
Ian Collins
Jacob Hernandez
>Maybe but it would have to be a pretty big or dense sattelite to make it through the atmosphere
wtf the ISS just flew over my house
Bentley Brooks
1/2mv^2... it’s physics, it’s inevitable.
Austin Allen
Oh hey it's the Hopi blue star prophecy that signals the end times, gonna be pretty fucking excited if this shit actually happens
Colton Myers
Lmao, I don't think many of the ISS parts would make it home but very well could someday. They have to do frequent orbital corrections to keep it in orbit without hitting debris
Lincoln Howard
about this one.
the one nobody in the media speaks about because of (((corona))).
express.co.uk
Liam Richardson
Their webpage still up.
Austin Miller
until 9/11 it was the biggest single-day death toll in US history.
also, fun fact, the only confirmed apparition of Virgin Mary in the US happened there- as the firestorm approached, people around that area sought shelter at a church where Mary had appeared about 20 years before, and the fire jumped over the churchyard, sparing all the people and livestock in the area.

June 9th is the republican primary in VA. Just a coincidence that lock down is lifted on the 10th, I'm sure.
Aaron Stewart
There were some witness testimony about balls of fire floating down and starting fires. Seems like it could have been meteors.
Alexander Sullivan
Microgram of antimatter
Angel Young
end me cometchan
Jaxon Turner
someone told these niggers to dig and search for it or what you mean?
Zachary Lee
we're all going to be locked down until june user
Charles Sullivan
Is Christ coming back at the 2000 year mark bros?
Nathan Campbell
End the world comet sama
Jack Torres
6 Lunar Distances.
You retards are fucking illiterate.
Asher Bell
you're getting infected bro oh no
Blake Roberts
What impact location would be best for humanity's survival? What would be the worst?
Asher Jones
nobody can predict when he is coming, not even he himself at the time of the scriptures.
so scientists of course also can't predict it.
but of course there are signs we have to see that will help us to realize how close it is
Jack Flores
ok and that nigerian meteor also should pass earth safely, NASA told me.
Bentley Jones
A speck of antimatter annihilates matter.
It’s like the engines in star trek - matter antimatter destruction propulsion.
Luke Torres
obviously antarctica, africa, siberia or australia.
maybe south america or canada would also be ok
Sebastian Robinson
How about an ocean impact?
Sebastian Lopez
also giant waves of fire descending from the sky and starting entire fucking cities on fire! it was way bigger than chicago. pretty much the entire countryside around green bay was torched
Robert Richardson
I think for niggers it doesn't -matter-
Mason Wright
Predictive programming.
Brody Lee
I somewhere read that huge fucking tsunamis from couple houndred meters up to several kilometers are possible, which is really fucked up if you think about it
Robert Collins
Jack Gutierrez
Heaven's gate blackpilled me on religion
Hudson Stewart
fucking lol you read this garbage?
Nathan Scott
Thank Christ I don't live near any coast. That's terrifying.
Josiah Sanchez
A near miss! Somebody call the papers
Owen Morris
I hope it takes out a satellite
Jack Nelson
In other words, the space rock is expected to miss us by about 16.36 times the distance from Earth to the Moon.
that clearly says it in the article. besides if you really want a rock to fucking hit the planet so bad, wait until 2035-2040. That one will hit the pacific ocean. That one will be the real threat.
