Oxygenbutter77: I am thinking this a military bragadoccio. Last weekend or even earlier this week it was about N.Korea testing subsurface Nuclear warhead that triggered a magnitude 4.9 tremor and now russia goes ICBM. I am not saying Russia tested nuke but both presidents want the support of their masses. And a show of strength is surely the way forward to rally the usual shepples behind their political X-box. Plus other political ax^2+bx+c=0 could be involved here. Asteriod or Meteriorites so that we start wondering and worrying of Extraterrestial inconviniences and press hard for Zionic protection against space catastrophe. USA might soon shield the whole of washington state with electric sonic magnetic shields from a falling moon. All these after Iran announced a war plane that would not be detected by radars 3weeks ago. I think the usual suspects have be ruffled from their Mouth Action now smaller nations have located their anus.

earthrealm: clowns!!!.intercepted by what?!!..a mi wetin?

choi..a meteor travels at speeds in excess of 60km/sec.the space shuttle which is abt the fastest rocket engine invented by humans travels at abt 11km/sec.....earths escape velocity hovers around 11-12km/sec...so even if the soviets hv a rocket capable of 25km/secs...intercepting and shooting down the meteor wud hv been near impossible............even if it was been tracked from space. the chances of succesfully tracking and taking it out are quite dim

Thank you oo!! please help me lecture these people... Not everything you see on TV would work in real life.

Very soon some people will say the Russians landed people on the asteroid and planted a bomb on it before escaping just in time. Mtcheewww

Ogbeni yii! Park your legedez benz and read my comment again.

Of course its real, if you weren't so myopic you would see that my comment was targeted at the report of 400injured (which may or may not be true) and the missile inerception (which is harder to believe)

Try again
why are u that backward,if isrealis can intercept thousands of missiles within small notice,why cant russia intercept this one they have been monitoring for long with known direction nd speed.

Tell me what you don't understand and I'll try my best to break it down so that it will make sense to you.

BTW did you notice that the article said "unconfirmed" reports of missile interception right?
There are now more than 500 pple injured, although most of them have minor injuries.

Exactly my thought. We r not ready for anything. Only stealing. At least I know Saudi, Iran, india, Pakistan, Ethiopia and probably SA will be ready. While they all have their eyes in the sky, we have ours fixed eternally on oil.

intercepted by missiles my foot. ever seen a missile with no telltale.

Latest report says more that 1000 injured.

I can't see any report of interception.

My brother. I don't know if this is a problem of semantics or physics. Intercept simply means to cross with the aim of stopping. It doesn't necessarily mean chase. Infact if it is coming towards you it becomes very simple. Thus a tortoise can intercept a speedy okada if it knows exactly where it is heading and how fast it is moving. All the tortoise needs to do is to start moving years before.

And for a 50m asteroid, a two-ton TNT warhead will scatter that thoughtless of a hydrogen or nuclear warhead.

elampiro: Latest report says more that 1000 injured.

I can't see any report of interception.

Those injuries will have been caused by the fragments of the shattered comet which still carry high inertia. Even if the comet was shattered to sand granules, a grain of sand moving at 17,00
kmph can still cut through you.

Force = mass x acceleration. Since you cannot slow it down your best chance of survival will be to alter the mass or should I say spread the mass.

The ignorance of some folks is amazing. The willingness to swallow everything said n the Internet is even greater! Intercepted indeed. Close-ups of what crater? The same crater in rock, a lake and in ice in the same day? Please.

And tho' the bible prophesies much about the end times, linking everything that happens as signs of the end times is one of the things that makes doubters see Christians as silly. For those who don't know, a meteor hit Russia's Tunguska region in 1911. Was that end time stuff too?

Before you get me wrong, I believe the bible and I long for Christ's return. But I'll not try to scare people to the path I follow.

Don't think you've heard of the word "COMMON SENSE" so trajectory is the only thing that needs to be considered abi? Not speed or mass shey? OK carry on professor

Regarding opinions, was my opinion not challenged by the same person you are defending as well? And are you not challenging my opinion as well? Nonsense hypocrite

While I am not disputing the fact that meteorites travel with shear velocity, I believe it's possible to intercept it with nuclear warhead moving (and closing in) in opposite direction. For crying out loud, no one is trying to chase asteroid or compete with it,
Russia should be able to destroy it, if it does not caught them unaware.

NB: NO REPORT OF INTERCEPTION ON SKY NEWS ANYWAY.
