“When the meteorite collides with the earth”
“Explanation”
What happens when meteorite collide with each other? We tried to find the answers: Simulation Experiment. We presumed that the collision happened with the earth in order for lucid distance and location. The diameter of the meteorite is slightly bigger than the breadth of Honshu Japan. The collision point is located at the 3,000km south from Japan in the ocean. The velocity of the meteorite is 70,000km/h. But the meteorite is bigger than we can imagine, so that it appears much slower. In the impact at the same time as colliding. The earth’s crust of 10km in thickness where ground in the earth is composed is wholly peeled off. This is called,"Earth’s crust tidal wave”. There is 1km width of the rock, and it flies to the sky it by the impact. The impact surges to the Japanese Islands and,as a result, the Japanese Islands are crushed. The splinter of the crushed rock easily exceeds the height of 1000Km. After exceeding the atmosphere it reaches space. Afterwards, the splinter of the rock falls again in surface of the earth. The edge of Crater completed by the collision of the meteorite is 7000m in height. It looks like a huge mountain range. The diameter of Crater has 4000Km. Crater is big to swallow a part from Guam to a Chinese continent. But,it was only an introductory chapter of the tragedy that would start in the future.....
The leading part with the accident is seen in Crater when seeing from space immediately after the collision of the meteorite. Seeming as shine to scorching color, and huge mass. The mass of the rock of which this turned into the gas and the name are said, “Rock Vapor”. The amount of the rock that becomes a gas is about 100000000000000kt. “Rock Vapor” extends in all directions on the earth after it swells up like the dome. “Rock Vapor” generated by the meteorite’s having been dropped to the sea located in the south of Japan will arrive at Himalayas in three hours. In “Rock Vapor”, the velocity of the wind is 300 meters. It becomes the hot wind of a terrific high temperature of 4000â? in temperature and burns Himalayas. In the world covered with “Rock Vapor”, even a thick snow that piles in the coldest place named Himalayas is instantaneously melted. There is no time to make the river and the snow is evaporated instantaneously. “Rock Vapor” will reach Amazon that lies to the other side of the collision of the meteorite in a day. Tropical forests of Amazon cause the autogenous ignition for the hot wind by “Rock Vapor” and the region is burnt up. Tropical forests of Amazon turn into sea of flames in less than no time. Surface of the earth from the collision on the first. It is covered with “Rock Vapor” and it turns into a scorching star. “Rock Vapor” wraps the earth for one year or more, and burns everything up at the terrific high temperature. It is the same as making the sun innumerable near the earth. On the other hand, the accident happens also in the sea. The sea began to bubble violently. The sea boils by the heat of “Rock Vapor”. Tremendous heat of the “Rock Vapor” reduces the sea level at the speed of 5cm a minute. The naked sea bed is relentlessly exposed to the intense heat and melted down like lava. The sea of 4000m in average depth has disappeared one month after the collision of the meteorite. At this point, the earth becomes a star where the living thing cannot live. Thus, the earth turned into the star of the death.....
That’s incredible. Let me know when you get more videos so I can post them at http://www.fukn.us
Daaaaamn
Meine Deutsche ist nicht gut und ich verstehen nicht Japanese, aber das video ist verrückt!
the likelyhood of an asteroid of this size to hit earth is extremely low, if only because there aren’t many asteroids of this size at all (it looks comparable to the size of the moon!), let alone in an earth-crossing trajectory. if there was one, there are good chances that we will detect it in advace and deflect it.
That is awesome, do you have more information about the documentary? Is originaly made in Japan or is there an english version of the entire program?
I heard somewhere it’s from the science documentary program aired by NHK, Japan in 2004, “The Great Evolution of Planet Earth”, under the general editorship of Dr. Sugita, geophysical scientist at Tokyo University.
I don’t know about an English version, there’s only a Japanese DVD, I think.
NHK, Japanese public broadcasting service with many science programs aired serial science documentary program of 6 chapters in 2004 clipped from the 1st chapter “The Planet of Life, Everything has begun with the Deep Impact”.
I don’t know if that’s for sure.
And by the way:
Bruce Willis will save us!
YOU MEANT TO SAY:
“Japanese animation showing what would happen **WHEN** a giant meteor will hit the Earth.
How comes that on the starting screen the meteor has some hot molten lava on the surface? Is it seismological active? Some volcanoes? Or some previos collision with another planet?
Meteors are cold and made of dirt+ice not lava.I was going to say the same thing as Dummy...besides the fact that the meteor in the video clip has a glowing core, what are the chances that it would also be perfectly spherical, and not explode into flames as it entered the atmosphere. Sure, the video ‘looks’ cool but it’s completely unrealistic.
I do find happily indifferent female narrator to be somewhat disturbing.
Mensch Meier! Jetz binnni um’n Riesenalptraum reicher wor’n, zig Dank! (Ob ich je wieder einschlafe könne?)
Daran gemessen sieht selbst der illegale Amtsinhaber und Vollidiot Bush relativ harmlos aus!

It’s not “becomes a star of death” but “becomes a planet of death” (star is synonymous with planet sometimes in Japanese)
Fuckin awesome, nice work keep doing.
Well that was thouroughly depressing. At least it looks like it would be a quick death for most of us!
From this astrophysicist: Totally implausable, close to laughable, completely disingenuous science.
I wouldn’t even know where to begin in describing how really bad this video is, worse, any food who’d believe it. It’s great however if you’re say Hollywood for “oooh ahhh” affect on the dumb masses who’d believe some tripe like this. Fact-based this clip is not.
As mentioned above:
1. There are few if any meteors this size. There’s tens of thousands, hundreds we know of, but they’re not even 1/100th of this size. Something this big wouldn’t slip by the amound of scopes the earth has pointed upward, at that size it’d reflect more light than Pluto because something shown that big IS almost the size of Pluto.
2. To be blunt, what the f*** is up with it’s glowing core? Who came up with this video? Some punk kid who was making the intro animation for Doom4? Meteorites don’t have glowing cores! This treatment right from the get go made me chuckle and think “okay, so this isn’t serious.”
3. At the same time I saw the glowing core, realizing that only a moron would believe this is something to be credible, I noted “wait, it’s round?!?” Bodies in space are round due to a number of physics laws, none of which apply to a meteor. Maybe the idiots that made this video were thinking it’d be cool to show, say, a planet that some alien life form sent from it’s orbit like a shotput at the earth… but that’d be more in line with what is shown here, though then that’d be saying some alien force could do this.
In short, if you’re looking at this and fearmongering sort, move along here, there is ABSOLUTELY nothing to see here but a laughably bad animation that’s complete and utter scientific bull****!
It actually looks plausible for an impact with something that size (which, to be honest, is far less likely than much smaller objects). A bit overkill for mass extinction (which could be done with an object less than 1% that size), but dramatic.
And incidentally, an object that size usually IS round for the same reason planets are - gravity.
It never uses the premise of the glowing core in the simulation. The Earth has enough glowing core itself, just waiting to be exposed.
Awesome animation. Somewhat unrealistic. But Eric’s No 17 explanation is good. And yeah we don’t have to worry, we have Bruce Willis.
Could this effect the “American Idol” semi-finals in any way, because I’d really like to see that skinny white kid win.
I think someone just got over-zealous with the meteor in the animation, because the translated audio lists the size of the meteor as slightly larger than honsu japan.
i think that animation would have showed something WAY worse happening if the meteor was really that big
Guess they didn’t get Holy summoned in time.
Sephiroth wins.
Danny, for an astrophysicist, you dont seem to be paying much respect to the scientific method in your reasoning why this is tripe…
“They drew bright bits on the meteor and they drew it the wrong shape, therefore all of their conclusions must be false”
Your lack of logic is appalling. Go back to school, fool.
Date is 2012. billymeier.com. Remember the end of the Mayan Calender, also 2012. Strike is near the Caspian. Future Dreams by Snow showed 90% of those under future-hypnosis had died of sufffocation and could not find a container in which to reincarnate. Go smoke that with your mainstream science pipe.
so far united state have has Scan over earth horrizon .... lately 60% has doneall of them seem to be un harm to earth ... the rest 40% could strike any moment...could be next day or next 500 000 years… we never know… let science and us ....save our species
Apparently, they screen “Star Trek: The Wrath Of Khan” frequently in Japan.
Nonsense, there’s no such thing as rock vapor.
The prediction that the oceans would vaporize from the thermal energy of the collision seems totally simplistic. Most of the heat will be transferred and conducted to the hot magma that sits under the crust. Some of the heat radiates into the atmosphere and space. The portion transferred by the surface and vaporizing the water near the destruction zone will transfer the heat very slowly compared to the heat going through the volume of the earth. (also I don’t think water vapor is a very good conductor of heat; Hot magma, much better.)
What I would guess would happen is that the hot magma becomes slightly warm and this heat is then pretty evenly absorbed into the crust. I doubt the entire oceans would be vaporized.
Now I found the solution!
You don?t have to worry!To show you exactly how unrealistic the video is, enter the impact data into the model given on this site!
About the lava on the asteroid.
Its possible it passed close to Jupiter and got molten by the strong gravitational forces like Io.
... hau wech!
Fucked forever!
This beats all the Hollywood second hand movies.

norvascasteroid of that size WILL BE SPHERICAL NOTHING LIKE THAT SPIKED ROCK IN ARMAGEDDON ASTEROIDS ARE ESSENTIALLY SMALL PLANETS..and it is glowing because even at these altitides the friction from the air because of the speed will be enough to heat that asteroid.....and yes, that sim. is unrealistic..our Earth colided with a 2000 km protoplanet 4.2 byr ago and the result was the Moon…
I used to be passionate about these things, I am just sorry I couldn’t see the little video, it’s not available anymore.
Gordman,
Beneficial AssociationHi Gordman - Problem solved!
First of all, it’s not very far from a potential reality. Scientists already have found out that in a few thousands of years this will be the end of our planet. Thankfully we won’t be there to see it.
Re 27: If rock (or anything, really) is heated enough, it vaporizes. If you do the math, an asteroid that size (very close in size and appearance to Ceres, except for the magma) travelling at 70000 kph has way more energy than it would take to boil the oceans. If a small rock travelling that fast hit a solid surface, its kinetic energy, converted to heat in the impact, would be enough to vaporize the rock and several times the rock’s volume of water. Most of the energy would indeed be absorbed my the mantle, forming a large melted region, but the spray of debris (millions of cubic km) and vaporized rock (billions) would be sufficient to sterilize the earth’s surface many times over, with enough energy to boil much, if not all of the oceans. Sure, heat would radiate to space, but it could easily take the year mentioned in the video to condense and cool down a kilometers-thick of layer vaporized rock. Meanwhile, the radiant flux from the sky would be quite enough to melt the salt left by the oceans and some less robust kinds of rocks, though not to great depth.
Re 34: Round, yes, but the only things I know of that could make an asteroid that size molten like it was shown would be a recent merger or an eon or so of major tidal heating. The bulk of the earth’s atmosphere is only a few km thick and would have very little impact on a 1000 km asteroid even as it poked through. The model I heard about of the formation of the moon involves a mars-sized protoplanet impacting at a very shallow angle so that a large spray skipped off and coalesced in orbit. Different angle, speed, and size.
Cool. I just got into anime, any suggestions?
nd burns everything up at the terrific high temperature. It is the same as making the sun innumerable near the earth. On the other hand, the accident happens also in the sea. The sea began to bubble violently. The sea boils by the heat of �Rock Vapor�.
Maybe the people that made this video were thinking it�d be cool to show, say, a planet that some alien life form sent from it�s orbit like a shotput at the earth� but that�d be more in line with what is shown here, though then that�d be saying some alien force could do this.
Thanks you very mach.
