DEEP IMPACT into reality..

-

The Earth was a peaceful place for dinosaurs roaming on land enjoying their lives,but one day BAMB!!!!!.They had a very bad day, an Asteroid hits the plant and everything got vanished ..soo sad...
Once a while every movie maker thinks of making movie where the Earth gets destroyed either by zombies or alien attack and most commonly by an upcoming Asteroid.
They could not had ever imagined in their wildest dream that it might change into a reality.Don’t think hard... you are guessing the correct one.Yes,I am talking about the movie Deep impact and Armageddon.(April) Friday the thirteenth of 2029 is the date we all should be worried about. An Asteroid (Apophis)is heading towards us.
DAMN! you just got excited..So let us be Bruce Willis for a while...grab your drills and rocket and head towards the Asteroid...

Is space really so quite ?..

We see space very quite and calm but in reality the picture is very much opposite. You will get shocked to know how we are in verge of destruction every time.There are millions of asteroids currently residing in our Solar System, of which some 500 thousand orbit in the inner solar system, where our planet also lies. Space agencies in the world have only mapped so far a mere 1% of these. Clearly, an asteroid impact with Earth poses a serious and realistic threat to humanity.


Are we doing anything...?

We have the idea and technology to solve it.

Hitting the Asteroid:A probe targeted towards it will hit it and change its path somewhere else .The hit doesn't have to be huge, a small one will be enough rather than in movie sending our heroes to drill and nuke the Asteroid. That was insane.

Towing the Asteroid: Yes that's right towing the Asteroid with probe just near it . Due to mutual gravitation the Asteroid gets attracted by the probe’s gravitational field and we can do it slowly and steadily and we have the engine just perfect for the job(ion drive engine).

The main problem is to detect them early before its too late to react towards it.
After an independent funds collection by scientists they have managed to launch a satellite which will track every asteroid and inform us if any one of them is heading towards us.
Let me introduce you the Sentinel Space Telescope(The [infrared] IR telescope would have consisted of 16 detectors, and coverage would have scanned a 200-degree, full-angle) by B612 Foundation will get launched towards the sun which will orbit between earth and sun to track down every asteroid out there and for a fact there are a lot of them. Often during earth's orbit around the sun creates a blind spot that makes a large area behind the sun not track able .Just imagine what if a huge asteroid is heading towards us and before we analyse it,it becomes too late. To tackle this problem this satellite is going to be launched which uses infrared (heat sensing)to track asteroids in terms of thermal imaging,due to which we can trace each and every asteroids out there.

We humans always get through our problems by thinking together and concerned building machines to solve it .Such projects creates hopes that there is someone looking after us .So, next time while looking at the sky by telescope if you see an approaching asteroid just inform the scientists, who knows one might get named after you... KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN FOR  Apophis .April 13, 2029, Apophis will pass nearest to Earth ,  will come no closer than 31,200 kilometres (19,400 mi) above Earth's surface ,but has 3%chance of hitting us.

MONSTERS IN SPACE...

MONSTERS IN SPACE   doesn't  mean real monsters  but the  monsters  which are actually there in space. In my fourth blog I revealed about how we are vulnerable of any space object hitting us but we have already started solving but yet one of the main problems is revolving around in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) , yes I am talking about human created junks in space. In this blog we are we are going to discuss about a huge problem of space garbage.   It is rude but true that when we humans get freedom we tend to misuse it and until it becomes a huge problem we don’t even consider of thinking about it. WHAT IS SPACE JUNK? Initially, the term space debris referred to the natural debris found in the solar system: asteroids, comets, and meteoroids. However, now it is mostly termed as the term the debris from the mass of defunct, artificially created objects in space, especially in Earth orbit . Garbage in space is a huge and problem and now it has become lethal...

Why we haven't seen ALIENS yet? ...

 Hi, there my Space Adventurers this is most important and interesting blog of all my blogs. We humans always have fascination about the idea that we might not be alone in the universe. I myself think that there is life waiting for us to discover them or they discover us or we are not just that advanced yet.  Now, that sounds spooky...well this blog is a bit long.... When scientists see in deep universe they don’t search for planet full of green men floating in the universe, they try to find civilizations. They might be advanced than us, their technologies might be way beyond our imaginations or they might be vulnerable. What classifies an advance species or civilizations .Till date it is considered that we humans are the only superior species and it perhaps true as we haven’t seen any evidence of other life forms in outer space. If we see just the probability of other life forms it is apparent we should be one of the thousands of civilization in the milky way alone an...

Why MARS?

All the hot rod ideas and mission going on to colonize mars are like volcanoes now a days. Since the beginning this Red (due to iron oxide on its surface) planet is like crazingly famous for humans to live. It has been a part of our culture for very long time. Various ideological movies and the recently MARTIAN which is considered as one of the most apt and correct sci-fi movie ever created making us see how life on mars could be like . So all the mark watney out there be prepared to get answered ...WHY MARS? Genius Billionaire like Elon Musk already on the way to apply the idea to colonize of mars. All things are just perfect for us to be inter planetary civilizations and a step closer in becoming type 1 civilization (my previous blog),but have you ever wondered why only mars why not other planets or moons. First thing first missions like Europa ,Titan etc all are going on and they provide a promising future but it will take a lot of time to even study them and we don’t...
