Great Cosmic Queries, as usual. One question, though: how can we be certain of what percentage of the total number of a given size of asteroids we have found? I'm sure Marina Brozovic's claims in that regards are founded in scientific facts and calculations, but it's just that, from a very basic logical standpoint, how can we know the full amount of something (and fractions thereof) if we haven't yet found all of it? I just wished that Neil or Marcia had asked Marina to clarify that point.
It's two things: extrapolation from what we have seen, plus mathematical analysis that leads to computer models of the solar system -- and it's amazing what can be learned from models.
Neil deGrasse Tyson is the Carl Sagan of our generation. He has got an extraordinary capability of explaining complex things about the cosmos in a way that even an elementary school student can understand. Keep doing what you do. Thank you for making science "cool" for the kids !
I hope Marina will be back answering more questions and sharing information 😀 I didn't hear a direct response to "can we nuke it" but I think I heard (beyond it being a last resort) that hitting a comet, etc TOO hard could merely multiply the problem?
Neil, a question a little off topic: could the number of satellites in orbit adversely effect the radiation belt surrounding our planet? Haven’t radio/cellular waves been shown to push the radiation away, and, if so, couldn’t that be heating the planet up? Just something I’ve been thinking on…
Mercury has none, Venus 1, Earth has 2 (both L4 ahead of Earth), Mars has 14, Saturn has none (though its moon Tethys does), Uranus has 2, Neptune 24.... Jupiter has over 11000 recorded Trojans... 😂
I tell you what….NDT knows when to drop the “Hey wanna learn something real quick” Perfect when he dropped “Asteroid” origin story. Sooooo cool Neil!❤️🍀
4:27 Well, actually, "aster" is Greek for star, not Latin. Star is "stella" in Latin, hence words like stellar etc. And -oid is again from Greek (actually, just the -id [-ειδής] part means "like"). Just saying. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asteroid#Terminology
A common misconception of numerous scientific terminology were Greek roots are mistaken for Latin too often to overlook. The actual suffix is -id (e.g. Cepheid) from the greek - and not latin - "είδος" which means kind (genus in Latin) as in "related to" and not oid were the o is from a preceding vowel part of the main term.
Love your content man. I have to take issue though with something you commented on on Twitter. The scene from the new top gun movie where a pilot ejected from vehicle at mach 7 or so...there is no way to know what the altitude was or what atmospheric pressures would be faced in a situation like that. Sure...those speeds at ground level would be deadly to any pilot. EVOS though, happen regularly. I think in some situations that The Pilot could survive such an extreme event. Let me know what you think. I'm going to subscribe to the channel. Really like this content! 👍💯
Could an unmanned craft stitch some form of web at an orbital intersection, catch an asteroid, swing behind it and fire a booster that is attached to a gimbled tethering configuration in uniform direction (pulse-firing the booster, for example) How would physics determine whether a cable could be light enough and strong enough in space to resist tearing away from the tether? Or, what about a reel and hook that is gently set in front of the asteroid with line paid way out to collide at perpendicular attitude, and where a rotation by the craft around the asteroid, at the end of the line is part of the alignment process for tugging with timed booster?
Don't get me wrong. I love StarTalk. I can't get enough of it. I especially love the astronomy episodes. Whatever it is up above, I'm listening and learning. It is a wonderful thing that we are actually blessed enough to to have this program. It speaks volumes to us, literally. We are reading, listening and learning. Emphasis: We do appreciate every guest and every cohost and Dr. Tyson, the host. I get so much from this program that I think it is an excellent idea to support it financially. (Let them be.. . just there in orbit where they belong. Nature has its way).
If they broke a big asteroid heading straight for earth apart, and the asteroid is two decades out, seems like the outer piece's could possibly go wide of earth, depending on each individual direction of the pieces after breaking apart. Seems like that would change the asteroids direction. The slow nudge would definitely be best. Both seem very hard to do, the later harder.
The hard part would be even knowing if the asteroid in question was suitable for splitting; the ones that are just rubble heaps would scatter, the metallic ones would be hard to split, so the targets for which this would be feasible would be the rocky and carbonaceous ones. Then you'd need to set your explosives to be just the right amount to achieve the split. All of this would really mean sending a mission to analyze the asteroid in every way possible since we'd need to know its density, consistency, makeup, how well it holds together... a lot of information, just to prepare the real mission. I imagine that in the future we'll have special space stations in Earth's Lagrange points with ships ready to go whenever a dangerous asteroid was found -- ships capable of implementing whatever diversion might be judged best.
The key to nudging it is you don't have to move it much if you catch it early enough. A change of 1 degree could amount to thousands of miles over the course of a decade.
@@brianupsher6675 At the speed asteroids move, a deflection of just 1 minute of arc could amount to thousands of miles! If I feel more alert later I might do the math.... This is a side-angle-side problem, so the amount of deflection ought to be x = L(tan θ), where θ is the angle of deflection, L is an arbitrarily chosen path length, and x is the total sideways deflection over that path length. So let's use L = 1,000km and if I'm doing my numbers right then θ = 1/216000 which is roughly 4.6 ee-5 or 0.000046. So.... if I did that right then the defection over a thousand kilometers is 0.803 meters. So to get a deflection of a kilometer, the asteroid has to travel 1.245 * L, or 1,245,000km. A typical asteroid should travel that far every 69 seconds. Flip the numbers around and we find it takes a comet about 56 seconds to travel 1,000km. Thus a deviation of 1,000km will taken of almost 70,000 seconds, or about 807 days = 2 years 77 days. So in a decade, the asteroid will have been deflected ~4,500km. Of course this is based on linear motion and not elliptical, but the numbers should be close enough to give the idea: a very tiny nudge a kilometer before impact gives a lot of deflection. To look at it another way, start with the Earth's radius, that being the maximum amount of deflection to make an asteroid miss Earth. The radius is 6,380km, but that's the radius to the surface, and we don't want the asteroid to graze the surface, so let's add a few hundred kilometers and round to 6,600km as the maximum distance of deflection to cause a miss. This yields a course correction requiring 14 years and seven months lead time. To shorten that we need a bigger deflection or more time. A bigger deflection is the only variable we really have control over because there's no way to say "We're going to see a dangerous asteroid fifteen years before it hits"; we might see it only three years out, or even less. So how to get a bigger deflection? Send a rocket with power to apply continuous acceleration is the quick answer, but since asteroids rotate and tumble that's actually rather difficult even without considering the fuel supply! The only solution I see is for the interceptor to use a laser to vaporize a point on the surface, and just travel along, aim the laser at the center of the visible asteroid, and just keep that aiming point, ignoring the rotation. This reminds me of a story I came across where an asteroid was deflected using solar power. Obviously at the time of interception of the asteroid that power will be minimal, but the closer the asteroid gets to the sun the greater the power, so they had to calculate the power curve and the resultant acceleration of the asteroid and the resulting deflection to determine how big the solar arrays should be.
Who would have known that Shoemaker/Levy were such big Mike Tyson fans! On a sidenote: JPL also does really good full size documentaries on their youtube channel. And not like shouty dumbed down TV docus.
I imagine that at this current time that a nuclear bomb destroying an asteroid is feasible. Reason being is that the propulsion relies on O2 to work. So the propulsion would have to be reconfigured in order to work. Am I correct in this thinking?
If I remember correctly during the Orion program they determined that nukes put as little as 10% of their energy on target. So they made some specialty nukes that put around 86% of their energy on target. Granted this is still highly classified so the accuracy is highly debatable.
@@joehebert789 Read my name and then OP's name and then you'll realize that a very classic and widely well known internet joke just went waaaay over your head.
Anyone remember that line from the Chevy Chase movie "Vacation"? His son in the movie asks his teen cousin, "You got Asteroids?" (the old video game). To which his cousin responds, "No, but my dad does, can't even sit on the toilet some days" 😜😜😜
So now I have to worry about Dr. Evil making a DART mission to push Neil's asteroid into an impact path with Mars. Man, it just never ends. What's next? Electric Cars and trucks?
I saw the #short about the earths liquid core generating a magnetic field and the little part at the end about mars not having a magnetic field. So I was wondering how it still has two moons in orbit around it?, I understand that orbit is like infinite freefall and i know mars still has gravity but its not self generated, unless i am confusing gravity with a magnetic field?
Wait wait wait. Near 38:00 there's talk about 90% of the larger Asteroid having been found and 50% of the smaller ones.... so how do you know how many you are missing?
I will have to correct Neil 😋 Star in Latin: Stella Star in Greek: Astir So, "asteroid" means "like a star" and it comes from Greek, not Latin+otherwise it would be "stellaoid").
