FEMA Red Alert - Asteroid to Hit Earth - NASA confirms Earth Overdue for Massive Asteroid Impact

We won't have to wait millions of years for "the big one", an asteroid impact causing an extinction level event, that will threaten the survival of mankind.

If one has ever seen a disaster movie about an asteroid striking the Earth, the danger may never again be taken seriously. One should fear rocks from space. The frequency is so high of meteors entering our atmosphere every year, that we will not have to wait millions of years for "the big one".

Every day 50 tons of debris falls into our atmosphere from outer space. Most of it is dust. The rest are stony asteroids, a real threat at the size of one mile in diameter. A massive amount of dirt would be vaporized on impact, filling the atmosphere with dust that would block sunlight for years, creating an ice age and severly limiting our ability to grow food.

The Earth is being monitored for infrasound signatures under the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. The equipment can detect a nuclear detonation and pinpoint it anywhere on Earth. It also registers disturbances caused by large meteors hitting the earth, which happens about once a month. So far most have fallen into the oceans or onto uninhabited land, with more kinetic energy than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima.

240 times larger than Meteor Crater in Arizona, the largest asteroid impact zone on Earth was recently discovered. Drilling for geothermal research at a depth of four kilometers, exposed deformed pieces of quartz, revealing the presence of a crater under the innocent looking plains of central Australia.

66 million years ago the colossal asteroid that killed the dinosaurs, penetrated a large oil field beneath the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. Thick, black smoke was raised into the atmosphere and it spread across the planet. The sun was hidden by soot, blocking ninety percent of solar rays. This lasted for three years. The global cooling and the drought that it caused, drove most land animals to extinction. However the majority of species living in fresh water were able to survive, including the crocodile.

In the year 1490 after the black death killed one third of the population of Europe, retribution was visited on the source of the plague... China. An asteroid disintegrated in the sky, above the prefecture of Qingyang. Stones fell like rain, from the size of a water chestnut to the size of a goose egg. More than ten thousand people were struck dead. Those that survived fled from the city.

Deep inside a Russian forest in 1908 near the river of Tunguska, a meteor whose diameter was but a quarter mile, exploded at an altitude of five miles over the uninhabited area. To document the destruction Soviet scientific teams spent ten years in study of this event, slogging through bogs and swarms of black flies. They found all the trees in the blast area lying flat on the ground, over an area the size of Halifax County in Virginia, and they found and photographed ground zero. Eyewitnesses in the backwoods, although watching the bright flash of the explosion at a great distance, were thrown off of their feet by the force of the blast.

When the "Big One" finally hits, the odds of being a witness are low. But for those near ground zero we know exactly what they will see as the behemoth approaches, because in 2013 a near-miss was captured on video in Argentina, during a rock concert for the band "Los Tekis". Observe, as the arrival of the juggernaut generates an electromagnetic pulse, which interferes with the sound and lights of the show on stage, followed by the screams of the spectators who believe they have only seconds to live.

NASA has been earning its funding by tracking three massive space rocks which could potentially strike the Earth, and reset our evolutionary clock back to zero. On different trajectories, they will be making multiple passes through the neighborhood. Between them these three asteroids will cross our orbit a total of 84 times, before they move on to threaten some other world.
