Manmade Object Approaches Earth - AL30

An unusual space body with parameters similar to a man-made object will approach Earth on Wednesday at a distance about three times less than the moon’s orbit.  The object, named 2010 AL30, will fly by Earth at a distance of at least 128,000 km (about 80,000 miles) at 12:48 GMT.

As it is some 10-15 meters long, there is no chance it will directly impact the planet.  According to Italian scientists Ernesto Guido and Giovanni Sostero of the Remanzacco Observatory, it has an orbital period of almost exactly one year and might be a man-made object such as a spent rocket booster.

"The object is about H=27.0 and strangely has an orbital period of 1.00 yr (Is it man-made I wonder). If it is a natural object then it may be about 10 meters across. Unlikely to be artificial, it’s orbit doesn’t resemble any useful spacecraft trajectory, and its encounter velocity with the Earth is not unusually low, around 9.5 km/sec “v_infinity”. Perfectly ordinary Earth-crossing orbit. But do go have a look at it, should be a super-fast rotator, P & 2 h, maybe a lot under." --Alan Harris, Senior researcher,U.S. Space Science Institute

When a scientist “wonders” if it is man, made so do we!  A piece of space junk, a hunk a hunk of burning asteroid, possibly an alien spacecraft on exactly a one year mission to circle the earth?  Dunno.  Having a 14th magnitude, means this object is bright and will be visible to us mere mortals.[read more]

“Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs) are space rocks larger than approximately 100m that can come closer to Earth than 0.05 AU. None of the known PHAs is on a collision course with our planet, although astronomers are finding a “new kind” all the time. On January 12, 2010 there were 1092 potentially hazardous asteroids.”[read more]

Gilgamesh the Hunter - excerpt

In this article Ralph rediscovers the lost traditions of this ancient Sumerian epic. Exactly to what and whom was the ancient scribe refering when he wrote of the great deeds of Gilgamesh. From "Jesus, Last of the Pharaohs"

"Gilgamesh is the ancient Sumerian epic, written some 4,000 years ago on cuneiform clay tablets and rediscovered only in the nineteenth century. It is a story that has echoes of the biblical Old Testament, with its graphic details of the flood and the formation of mankind from the dust of the earth. The bulk of the story is devoted to the king of Sumer, known as Gilgamesh, and his epic quest into the mystical forests of cedar where he performs many heroic deeds. Although it contains mythical elements, Gilgamesh is thought to be a biography of this Sumerian king making his mark on the world, but it is possible that this interpretation may be in error. The epic of Gilgamesh is also thought to be the earliest heroic story ever written in the world, but once more the alternative scenario indicates that the true the date of its inception may up to 600 years younger than previously thought." [Ralph Ellis Website]

With its constant reference to bulls, sheep and fish, the Bible portrays definite echoes of an ancient astrological religion, a story of the constellations onto which the history of the patriarchal family has been grafted. In Gilgamesh, we find a similar epic tale of a battle with bulls and sheep, one that can just possibly be interpreted as a clash of the stellar constellations, a battle between Aries and Taurus.

Could the appearance of 2010 AL30 be a forewarning of an astronomical forbearance?

Are major changes about to happen?

Is this a hint of the end as 2012 doomsday theorists project as indicated by the end of the Mayan calendar?

What if by some mere chance this 14th magnitude object, packing enough power to circle the globe should happen to divert to NYC or another populated city?

At 7:17 AM on the morning of June 30, 1908, a mysterious explosion occurred in the skies over Siberia. It was caused by the impact and breakup of a large meteorite, at an altitude roughly six kilometers in the atmosphere. Realistic pictures of the event are unavailable. However, Russian scientists collected eyewitness accounts of the event. I believe that we now know enough about large impacts to "decode" the subjective descriptions of the witnesses and create realistic views of this historic asteroid impact as seen from different distances.Recent scientific studies by meteorite researcher Christopher Chyba have estimated that the Tunguska event may have been caused by the explosion of a stony meteoroid about 30 meters in diameter traveling at about 15 km/s. Compare the energy released by such an object with that of an atomic bomb sucks as those dropped on Japan in World War II….Thus, our estimate is that the Tunguska had an explosive energy roughly on order of 60 A-bombs, or 500 KT of TNT. It was closer in effect to a very large H-bomb. [read more]

2010 AL30 is estimated at 10 -12 meters giving any impact only one third of the power of what happened in Tunguska.  Only one third, around 20 Atom Bombs.  Holy shit, batman.

Maybe the events at Tunguska weren’t a meteor but a UFO, as one scientist believes….

A Russian scientist claims that a UFO deliberately crashed itself into Tunguska meteor to save Earth from destruction 100 years ago.

Dr Yuri Labvin, president of the Tunguska Spatial Phenomenon Foundation, insists that an alien spacecraft sacrificed itself to prevent the gigantic meteor from crashing into the Earth.

Labvin believes that quartz slabs with strange markings found at the site are leftovers of an alien control panel, which fell to the ground after the UFO crashed into the giant rock.

“We don’t have any technologies that can print such kind of drawings on crystals,” the Sun quoted Labvin as saying. We also found ferrum silicate that cannot be produced anywhere, except in space.” [read more]

Whatever 2010 AL30  is, it will make its closest approach on Jan. 13th, 2010 when it will streak through Orion, Taurus, and Pisces glowing like a 14th magnitude star! 

There are twelve constellations that make a ring around the Earth. To astronomers, this band is called the Ecliptic, and is the path the Sun and the Moon both appear to take around the Earth. [read more] - [source -Ahrcanum  - Open Wide and say Ahhh]
