How dangerous asteroid is?

 


"Recent research led by the University of Maryland using the Zwicky Transient Facility telescope has revealed that the Taurid swarm, a stream of space debris from the comet Encke, poses less of a threat than previously believed.

Asteroid impacts are always dangerous. If the 10X10 m cosmic rock impacts the ground with the cosmic speed that can cause local damage. The local damage means that the city center can turn into a crater. And if a small asteroid hits the water, it can form a tsunami. The problem is that the small-size asteroids are detected at the last moment. The bigger, mountain-sie asteroids are easier to detect. 

But turning those asteroids away from their course is hard because of their large size. When a large-size asteroid hits the ground or water it is dust and vapor to the atmosphere. The asteroid also turns the atmosphere very hot in its trajectory. 

And if the angle of the incoming asteroid is low the friction raises the atmosphere's temperature in a long route. And that can cause even global forest fires. The steep trajectory makes it possible for the atmosphere to turn hotter in more limited areas. But the asteroid can fall to the bottom of the ocean. And make the hole to magma. That can cause a nuclear winter that can collapse our entire ecosystem. 

The impact of asteroids destroyed dinosaurs That thing means that the asteroid impacts are dangerous things. If some asteroid comes to impact course to Earth. And falls to some major city that destroys the city. 

However large groups of small meteorites or meteoroids could be dangerous. if a large number of quite small meteoroids that burn in the atmosphere impact Earth's atmosphere that thing can form a case, that those small particles can raise the atmosphere temperature. Theoretically, that kind of meteoroid fall can raise the Earth's atmosphere temperature so high, that things like forests start to burn. The meteoroids can be as devastating as larger asteroids. But the requirement is that there are lots of meteoroids.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

"Researchers discovered a significant magnesium anomaly in a meteorite’s dust particle, challenging current astrophysical models and suggesting new insights into hydrogen-burning supernovas.

If the collapsing nebula is heavy enough, it can form a black hole straight from the nebula. But if the nebula's gravity is too heavy to  form  the blue giant or too  small  it can collapse  straight  into a black hole . If  the forming star is a little bit larger than the blue supergiants. It can explode immediately when the fusion starts.    The theory of hydrogen-burning supernovas consists  model  of the giant stars that explode immediately after their fusion starts. When the interstellar nebula  falls  it can form

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang. This makes it the most distant and earliest known Milky Way-like galaxy found to date. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/L. Rowland et al./ESO/J. Dunlop et al. Ack.: CASU, CALET" (ScitechDaily, Astronomers Baffled by Ancient Galaxy That Mirrors Modern Milky Way) Researchers found the youngest Milky Way-type galaxy. The distance to the galaxy is enormous. And the light that comes from that galaxy named REBELS-25 comes from the Universe that is only 700 million years old. The distance to that galaxy is enormous about 236 billion light years. And that means it's a very dista

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

   "New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at  USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later".
