Another Expert Agrees With Dark Comet Theory

February 21, 2013 – 11:31 am | No Comment

Astronomer David Asher (from Armagh University) has agreed with Bill Napier and Janaki Wickramasinghe (Cardiff University) that “dark comets” are real and dangerous.
The following quotes are from a paper by Napier and Asher published in Astronomy & Geophysics.

We know that about one bright comet (of absolute magnitude as bright as 7, comparable to Halley’s Comet) arrives in the visibility zone (perihelion q<5AU, say) each year from the Oort cloud. It seems to be securely established that ~1–2% of these are captured into Halleytype (HT) orbits. The dynamical lifetime of a body in such an orbit can be estimated, from which the expected number of HT comets is perhaps ~3000. The actual number of active HT comets is ~25. This discrepancy of at least two powers of 10 in the expected impact rate from comets as deduced from this theoretical argument on the one hand, and observations on the other, is …

Ohio Man Also Hit by Meteorite?

Submitted by on August 15, 2010 – 4:44 pmNo Comment

Following on from the man watching the cricket last week, if this in in fact a meteorite, then perhaps, just perhaps, we are seeing a rise in such phenomena…

An Ohio man claims he was hit in the shoulder by a chunk of meteorite falling from the sky Sunday night.
“I didn’t know what it was,” Pat Foraker said. “I thought somebody was playing a prank on me and threw something at me.”

“Hit me right here, I heard it,” he said. “It was like a whistling noise. It thumped my shoulder and landed in the swimming pool.”
The rock sliced the skin on Foraker’s shoulder, and was still warm when he plucked it out of the pool.
Geologists at Ohio State University will examine the rock, but believe it’s likely a meteorite.

Despite what the news report says, if you watch the video the University experts do not think it is a meteorite. Perhaps because they think a meteorite would cause more harm?
