A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
The sad thing is that according to Scott Manley video the areas it can hit are equatorial Africa or South of India, so lot of countries will try to ignore it
Until those countries start planning a meteor re route, which if done improperly could push the impact zone anywhere.
Gimme that flush COME ON
Am I being wooshed? It's impossible to get a flush with the two spades. Or the Aces.
Nah, you have it right. 4-5 needs runner runner 2-3 or 6-7
Just needs a world card
Hearts but not for the 3% guy. Still low odds for a flush, yeah?
So what level of calamity are we talking about here? 3% doesn’t sound that low to me.
Well we wouldn't have to worry about global warming anymore
This size meteor would destroy a city but not have lasting planet-scale effects. Think Tonguska event.
I begin to worry when I see this asteroid still in the sky and how it becomes gradually bigger
Revised down to 0.27%
Just when it was getting good too! One of these days...
An interesting thought is that if it actually hits, this might provide the impetus for some countries to get their shit together and get into space for good. Potentially changing the course of history.
