    Meteorite Hits Norway!

    A friend of mine in Norway was trying to tell me something had happened up there. Anyone here from up Norway?

    That's insane.

    "As Wednesday morning dawned, northern Norway was hit with an impact comparable to the atomic bomb used on Hiroshima."

              Astronomers were excited by the news.
              "This is simply exceptional. I cannot imagine that we have had such a powerful meteorite impact in Norway in modern times. If the meteorite was as large as it seems to have been, we can compare it to the Hiroshima bomb. Of course the meteorite is not radioactive, but in explosive force we may be able to compare it to the (atomic) bomb," Røed Ødegaard said.

                Im from Norway, the experts say the metor migth be as big as a ton, it hit a mountainside quite close to the Finnish border. Its about 2 hours by car north of the city I live in (tromsø), but since Im not at home atm I didnt see it, ppl in the city did tho.

                Map whit crash site

                Noone was hurt in the crash but it was felt many miles away.


                Damn, whis I was in the city, sucks to miss an event like this..

                    buhahahaha

                    Ok it is not funny.

                    I did post a thread about something like this happening several months back. Watched some science show that was talking about it. Discovered that the only country even looking for such items in space is the US, and that the US is only spending about 1.4 million a year to do so and it is staffed by less workers than a typical fast food joint.

                    Apparently earths orbit is a cluster fuck with a shit load of potential rocks that can put us out of our misery. I think they said they have only identified around 20% or less as safe so far and that "planet killers" are more than likely in our path.

                                    Well..edit.. most of them are small rocks, burning up in the athmosphere.

                                      Ok that is true.
                                      But those are just called Meteors and not meteorites.

                                        Sure we do. Most burn up but some very very small ones make it through the atmosphere.

                                            Meteors burn up, meteorites hit us. Almost all that fall from the sky are in the meteor category.

                                            The fun part is if it was roughly a ton, then it was maybe around the size of a recliner chair and that was like the atomic bomb we dropped on japan. Now think about the ones that are from the size of a school bus upwards to the size of a mountain floating about out there.

Now think about the ones that are from the size of a school bus upwards to the size of a mountain floating about out there.
                                                That is the scary part. IF and when a meteorite of substanial size hits, much like the one that destroyed the dinosaurs, there is Absolutely Nothing we as a technological civilization can do but watch and Kiss our ass goodbye.

                                                  Well we could do something if we got off our asses and found them and then developed a good way to nudge them. Though those that think we can just nuke em are damn funny. Sure lets blow it up and see what happens in zero gravity. The small rocks will clump back together forming a big pile of now radioactive rocks.

                                                    Actually... considering time and size of destruction, there is a bigger chance of getting killed by an asteroid than in traffic

                                                      I watched on Discovery exactly that. Scientists shot at rocks as an experiment to see what the outcome would be of blowing up different types of meteorites etc and the gravity pulled the pieces back together OR If they were larger they then became multiple threats. Blowing them up isnt going to work, other options are to move them as you said from the trajectory.
                                                      lets hope in the near future scientists will come up with a plan.

                                                        i had a friend that had a meteorite hit their house. went through the roof. was about the size of a softball. anyways... he took pics of the impact area, the rock from several angles and put it on ebay. bids got over 6 figures! then the FBI and NASA stepped in and laid claim to the rock. ebay shut down the auction and the FBI came into his house with a warrant and took the rock.

                                                        how the hell can the government lay claim to a rock that fell from the sky?

                                                            meteorites isnt something most of us worry about on a daily basis until something like this happens and we realize we have NO means to protect ourselves from a potential civilization ending disaster. I have seen where possible ways are to "grab" the meteorites and push them into another orbit etc but that is almost impossible if the Rock is the size of a mountain.
                                                            Either way scientists had better get on this or eventually we're fucked.

Since meteorites fetch huge chunks of money because no one knows what's in them, now the fed scapp them up for themselves.

                                                                      You're supposed to report any space junk that crashes but smart people who know the value stash that bad boy and go black market.

                                                                      Reason of the value is due to any articles within the object like precious stones and metals or even life forms. You find a meteorite with evidence of life or manufacture and you can retire.

But they are almost all very small, just a few milligrams each. Only the largest ones ever reach the surface to become meteorites. The largest found meteorite (Hoba, in Namibia) weighs 60 tons. Etc etc etc.

While the comet is not expected to come close enough to hit earth (2 million miles away), the debris from it is (and would be meteorites). Could this be part of the comet's debris...
