>>107131681Why would an interstellar projectile need angular momentum or fins?
>>107131681nice schizo ramble.this isnt /x/
even an advanced alien race billions of years ahead of us could destroy Earth simply by firing and extreme high speed giant rock at us. seems like the most cost effective method
>>107131694tails have mass/particles and there's also solar windyou can design the comet to heat up and release particlesalthough jets and pressure chambers would prolly work better for thatbut there are "random space particles"if you're travelling at 60 km/syou're going to scoop up some of themthat could explain the glow at the front, if thats realyou just design to proctile to light up once it crosses a certain velocity in space with a certain density of particles>>107131701>this isnt /x/exactly! think it through
>>107131681why would they destroy us? Evidently torturing us has been more fun.
>>107131728>>107131694>angular momentum*even heating
its already gone past earth and is leaving the solar system. take your meds and start worrying about the next comet
>>107131784>its already gone past earth and is leaving the solar systemnyet comrade our ayylium overlords have plotted the course that its closest approach is 2025-12-19it has gone past its perihelion on the 2025-10-29/30the anniversary day of war of the worlds radio broadcast panic>thats all coincidencemaybe>"we exist, btw.">by the way>bi the way>split the way in half>perihelionit's ayys, and theyre trying to make it clear that were all the same, eg they dont give a fuck if ur burger, kraut, jeet, chinkanyhow, those are all of interpretive quality, and change nothing on the technolo/g/ical aspects of throwing rocks in spacethat perfect trajectory/flight path/etc.planets barely affect flight pathsthose two close fly-bys are intentionally plottedridiculously unlikely for non-sentience
SoWhat need did you had to erase the core evidence of government stalking?Besides government stalking me some more
>>107131681It's a rock bro.
>>107131831today is November 7th, your own animation shows you its leaving us. for the love of God man increase your medication 200%
>>107131905It's leaving the solar system, yes, but it's still coming closer to Earth, until December 19th.
>2 birds, 1 stone>3 stones/rocks>3 birdshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNBCVM4KbUM>singing>this is my message to (You)
death is coming for us all regardless. being vaporized in a millisecond by a comet impact is the most painless death possible.I for one await the sweet release from our interstellar executioner
>>107132035Sorry bro it will take hundreds of years before they can even see that they missed and have to shoot another rock, let alone the travel timeYou'll have to die the old-fashioned way
>>107131681sorry lil bro, it's just a comet and it's currently leaving our solar system.You will still have to pay taxes and go to work next monday.
>>107132044Oh yeah, they have been monitoring us since who knows when and FTL must somehow exist.They chose low-tech intentionally, as much as they can/willing to risk, because we supposed to be kept in the dark.
>>107132044nah they were flinging it at mars to try and destroy the interstellar horror sleeping there right as it awakens when it's most vulnerable, but they missed and everything is gonna be devoured and it won't be painless. quite the opposite, when this unholy demon eats you, you will experience pain beyond imagining for a million years or more as it slowly digests your soul
>>107132061Yes, that's kind of what the Ayys want, too.They don't want panic.They know, if they suddenly appear in the sky, that that will happen.We might even blow up the world in our panic.That's how much we humans suck.Anyhow, I don't mind paying taxes, if they are used properly and not misappropriated.The Ayys are telling us, our (corrupt?) leaders at the top do _not_ have the final say....which does not mean that we plebs are allowed to slack off, either.Just that we can be assured, our leaders do not have free reign either.
>>107132102Anyhow, I guess what I'm saying is that something like>Men in Blackprobably exist, led by Ayys, and there is really advanced technology as well.Imagine you can harness the power of a sun, throwing rocks is kindergarden, carving specialized rocks just as well.>Can you guys figure this one out?Maybe we are some "alien" wildlife, protected under some galactic treaty, and guided, and have always been.It would make _sense_, that they are "testing" us.Asteroid-bullets, come on, people.They're just going to ignore us until we figure that out.
>>107132070>They chose low-tech intentionallyexactly. you dont kill a colony of ants with a fleet of star destroyers when a rock can do the job
>>107132210>let me guess>you were expecting a 'death ray'ayy lmao!
>>107132258>>you were expecting a 'death ray'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLykC1VN7NYThey probably have those, too.Think about it, it's just galactic scale.We can create LHC.If they have Dyson swarms, think of the particle accelerators they can create.The Fermi Paradox can also be solved with>we are cattleWomp-womp....but they seem benevolent!
>>107131681how do you guys think this would glow up when accelerated to 60 km/s in the seeming void and vacuum of space?>ramjets>but in space
>>107132513Right, so it's spinning along the roll axis, while it's being carved or made.The front is some kind of deflector dish, that collects random space particles and forces them into a geometric structure that makes it unlikely for them to bounce back out.This sets a "fuse" in motion.That burns down, while factoring in the heat build-up from the sun.I'm still there with>it's just a rockbut all those anomalies, if they are real, are still most easily explained by a rock _intelligently_ designed (or we're just too dumb to figure out chaotic entropy, but never mind that).I've been hearing the surface in direction of travel [of all comets] is plasma.Is that true?
>>107132070>FTL must somehow existI hope a link to that paper finds me again......but apparently researchers have done FTL comms, by squeezing space, because that has no limits, theoretically.So the particles travelling never go past the speed of light, but the space is squeezed (hello Futurama), meaning they were able to communicate information at 1.4x c.It lasted only nanoseconds.Furthermore, this is completely theoretical and a brainfart, and it may already exist and have a name, but consider "space" has some state where it becomes "superconducting," i.e. you can instantly bridge any distance (and/or time?), but the energy required is (linearly? radially? exponentially?) proportional to it.>elerium 115All those elements' low half-lives; what if you could impose a state where they constantly oscillate between baryonic (anti)-matter states instead?
>>107131681maybe its chrysalis but coming back?
>>107132960All these implications are massive and such technology is very... dangerous in the wrong hands, never mind malice, just negligence and tomfoolery.They would want to keep us in the dark as much as possible until we figure it out ourselves and also figure out for ourselves how to responsibly use such tech.It's super scary.But the thought>we're not the firstwhen you think it all through......it hopefully means they are ultimately benevolent, else we would've never gotten as far as we are now. But also that we are not alone, but our sandbox is guarded. And it's worth questioning whether guarding such a sandbox costs resources and they'd want us to pick up our own tab at some point.
is this the current shiny keys they're jingling in front of the conspiracy schizos?
