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 …

Chinaman Builds Ark Orb

Submitted by on December 15, 2012 – 5:09 amNo Comment

Chinaman is such an antiquated term, but I’m not sure if it is un-PC… oh well….

This bloke from China has taken the bull by the horns and built a survival pod:

According to the Daily Mail:

Liu Qiyuan (a farmer from China) created the fibreglass shells – dubbed Noah’s Ark – after being inspired by the apocalyptic Hollywood movie 2012.

….Building them around a steel frame in a yard at his home in the village of Qiantun, Hebei province, south of Beijing, he says the pods can offer life-saving shelter during natural disasters such as tsunamis and hurricanes.

The pods are able to float on water and some of have their own propulsion.

The airtight spheres with varying interiors contain oxygen tanks and seatbelts with space for around 14 people, and are designed to remain upright when in water.

It’s not a perfect solution, unfortunately… As we have seen from recent tsunamis, it is often not death by drowning, but rather death by being thrown against sharp and heavy stuff by the torrents. Likewise, while float-ability is important, what happens when you get slammed at 50 knots into something pointy?

The solution is to add spikes to the exterior, so that it resembles a seed pod. The spikes become crumple zones.
