Directional Terahertz Frequency Scheme to Destroy Asteroids Entering Earth"s Atmosphere
It seems that humans are quite worried about the future of an asteroid taking out all life on our planet, or most of it just as we suspected it had in previous eras including the demise of the dinosaurs.
The dinosaur species on this planet lived for over 400 million years, and they lived in great abundance, and ruled the planet.
That was their turn, and now it's ours.
But, the question still remains; "what if?" Okay so, let's talk about this for second shall we? Now then, how do you take out an asteroid which is coming towards Earth? What if it is made of pure iron, or other metals making it very hard to shoot down? What if its core is very hard and nuclear weapons can't even break it apart? Will mankind's weapons do much damage at all to such an asteroid? There have been comets which have passed through the surface of the sun and come out the other side.
If the sun can't take out a comet, what happens if one of those hits the Earth? Is it possible to rendezvous with a comet or asteroid strap on some propulsion devices which can change its trajectory.
1 degree five-years prior, therefore diverting it from its path and collision course with Earth? Does it make more sense to shoot massive atomic weapons and asteroid to literally blow it out of the sky? All of its pieces would then be smaller, and although could be a problem, won't take us out? SpaceDaily had an interesting article recently in their Deep Impact" section titled; "Fireball Over California/Nevada: How Big Was It?' by Staff Writers at JPL, Pasadena CA, Apr 26, 2012.
Anyway it turns out that the asteroid was about the size of a mini-van and it lit up the sky at 10 AM in the morning as a giant fireball for all to see.
Okay so, this was the size of a minivan, but what if it was the size of an aircraft carrier? That's what we are talking about here.
What if we could cause an asteroid to dematerialized, or hit another object, something solid prior to it hitting Earth? What if we could use some sort of gas and hit with a terahertz frequency beam, causing its density to expand by 1000% in front of the incoming asteroid? What if we could cause the asteroid to go through several layers of such a defense system, like a catcher's mitt strategy? Is it possible? Would all those particles reform? Could we break it apart completely into nothing more than extremely fast moving dust through the solar system? More questions than answers, but it's time that we ponder some of these thoughts.
