No big deal.In fact, some scientists believe that Jupiter is helping us in a way of diverting comet, asteroid and all other space debris into it planet, if not, some may fly into here and that is it, we are history.
Dun overeact, be cool, earth will be hit by such comet every 100million years, by that time, most probably we are not around already.
Yeah... i remembered reading somewhere from the net stating that due to jupiter's enormous gravitational pull(due to its huge size) helps(as u said) divert comet, asteroid and all other space debris into it.
Thank god!

A comet can be mathematically calculated by scientist if it has cross our solar system before , i remembered when i was into "space" during primary 6, i read a book stating that comets that crosses our solar system will very likey make a second crossing in the future, as the saying goes, what ever comes around goes around. lol... an example of a marked comet is the Halley's comet which crosses us every 75years or so(Halley's Comet last appeared in our solar system was in 1986(Wiki source).Which means its next appearance is around 2061??.Originally posted by Day Dreamer:Comet also mathematically in order uhh?

you never know this could be your last message........ -
Actually its not the comet that is the size of the earth.
The comet is actually smaller than a mile wide, but upon impact created a fireball the size of the Earth.
So if we get a comet less than a mile wide that hit the Earth at such speed, then mankind might end up like dinosaurs.

can send an atomic bomb or few/many atom bombs to break up the comet before it reaches anywhere near earth in a worse case scenario?

Unless you are sure the whole comet will be destroyed; otherwise destroying it will still be a bad idea.

its a shamed that nobody get to see the trajetary of the comet. It is a comsic wonder to have 2 such a large impact within a short period of time.
I wonder if shoemaker - Levy 9 were alive today what would they have said.

if the asteroid is as big as earth, would'nt it be big enough to revolve around the sun due to the sun's gravity and be considered a planet?

no need scared la.
we got bomb shelter what

You should go to their web site.....US Bunkers! See that little UFO shape... go see the web site.

Breaking up the comets actually does more damage i believe, since the smaller multiple fragments hitting together could potentially wreck more havoc to food/water supply than one single big one hitting a particular region.But that's just one of the many possible scenarios.
