      thats a good observation but, even though correct, it's just an illusion. they only behave the way they do today because of their extremely violent past, and won't stay this way forever. nothings permanent.

      ​@@Itstheclaw Very true. Some go kill a dozen strangers because god told them to... Or, in the days past, burn people alive or torture them. Or, like one little German dude with a square mustache loved to say "Gott mit uns" ("God with us") while slaughtering Russians and Jews by the millions. Considering that god let him do it, then god was indeed with him on that. Although, I'd rather there not be any god than a god like this.

    I remember the week of July 16 to 23 1994 very well, within minutes of the first strike there was a surprisingly large dark impact scar unmistakably visible. It was visible through small telescopes, even the cheap Wal-Mart type telescopes. The scars remained visible for months before they dispersed and faded away. A good thing this comet struck Jupiter and not us, had we been the target, ShoemakerLevy9 would have wiped out civilization and probably all humans too.

      It’s 2017 and it could be the year of the asteroids because once again, for the forth time this year, an asteroid, this time named 2017 BS32 has gone by Earth. On February 2, 2017, 2017 BS32 narrowly shaved our planet with very little time to prepare. This once again brings out the big worry about the asteroids that we don’t catch on our screens. It is almost certain that in the future an asteroid, perhaps the size of New York City, will smash into our planet. When will it happen, well, we do not know, but wouldn’t it be nice if we at least had a chance of spotting it heading in our direction. it returns closer in 2029, and a potential impact 2036 and 2068, impact is not definite but it is so close it could hit your gps satellites , i have several very viable ideas on how to prevent this, a craft rendezvous with it with drilling rig and big hoover bag, bits are drilled off and stored in bag, when full it is shot on ahead and exploded creating a dust cloud that slows the thing down and thus alters its orbit, and if given enough time it only needs slight orbital change no harder than the stuff that they do to send probes to the planets already , or coat it in chalk one side coal dust the other and let solar heating shift it slowly . the key is advanced warning really, size is not so much a problem, but the last thing we should do is nuke it, we then have many rocks to track!, stay safe

    A star requires an absolute minimum of 79 Jupiter masses in order for hydrogen to fuse into helium and make the star shine. That tiny star would be a dense, but cool and dim red dwarf with most of its light in the infrared spectrum. At Jupiter's distance from Earth, we'd get very little light from it if it were a red dwarf star.

    I'm curious. I'm always hearing how Jupiter massive gravitational effect keeps the inner solar system protected from comets, asteroids etc. But couldn't also be that Jupiter also attracts comets into the system? Not all that are attracted will hit Jupiter. Depending on distance and timing and other factors isn't it just as likely that objects that would otherwise pass get turned into our solar system by Jupiter?

      Jupiter can sling shot a comet directly towards us, but the solar system is really clean of comets. The asteroid belt is a controlled area that is held by Jupiter and the Sun so it’s a one in a trillion chance it’ll happen in our life time or anyone alive.
