How fast was that fucking meteor. It just punched a hole straight through. What the absolute fuck.
GreenLantern15
It's theoretically possible if an object traveled close to light speed.
Proxxy0
True, but for an object that massive, you would need an immense amount of energy, which is virtually impossible for something that massive

Something like this would be visible for days if not longer. But you make good joke.

Would the earth collapse back in on itself?

Some of it definitely. Some would probably reach a velocity that escapes the gravitational pull off the earth.

I mean it takes a few seconds for sound to travel. It's possible that transmission came through before the explosion.

Not if it was a reply to the astronaut's query...

Well no, because the explosion was seen by the astronaut, and that took time too travel.

Tornadotaco
Wonder what would happen tho. Weird solar orbit for the moon? How long until you smash into earth bits or get too close to the sun and burn
NateintheNorth
Quite a while, I think. The earth and moon are small and space is big.
theoneandonlyMD
Earth as we know it destroyed, but debris still gravity bound. It would coalesce back to nearly earth-sized, with a small portion of mass...
theoneandonlyMD
...actually leaving orbit. The moon would continue to orbit the center of gravity of the earth-moon system. Orbit would become slightly...
theoneandonlyMD
...eccentric, but not much changes on the moon aside from more craters as impacts begin to occur from the debris.
PhysicistInHiding
I approve. Gaussian surfaces ftw.
FlightRisk3154
if the object has enough energy to completely penetrate the earth? Surely that's enough energy to scatter the debris everywhere?
TotallyNotSean
Erm. You've seen close ups of the moon, right? Those creators are impact zones. All tho the moon would be taking considerably more impacts.
TotallyNotSean
Craters*
DavidHawa
I think he means what would happen to the moon without earth to orbit. Would it just fly into space or just start orbiting the sun

"why is the moon way too close to the earth?"
ThatGuyVinny
Small entrance and large exit is typical of a lot of projectile weapons. Given enough speed and the right size object I don't see why not
SergeantSalsa
This scale of a collision with "enough speed" is quite much an impossibility
Insomnia297
If it was moving 99.9% the speed of light it would be possible.
Insomnia297
But it'd probably just fucking disintigrate the whole goddamn thing instead of punching a hole through it so...
ApolloTheSpaceFox
an object hitting the earth straight on is extremely low statistically, the moon would almost certainly pull it to either side and more than
ApolloTheSpaceFox
likely just fly by the earth and never be seen again within our realm of influence
ThatGuyVinny
Statistically improbable sure but not even close to physically impossible, If it's an aimed projectile it negates the positioning variables
ApolloTheSpaceFox
also didn't say it was impossible...
ApolloTheSpaceFox
okay But I was thinking about reality within the next thousand years or so lmao.
SaltyInternetPirate
Do you see that fucking speed at which it's passing through? No moon is going to pull that in.
ApolloTheSpaceFox
gravitational pull is constant. The closer the object gets the stronger the pull.
Beelsebooob
Yes, which means that gravitational acceleration is constant, which means change in speed is related to time in that gravitational field.
ClarityAndVision
IIRC some astrophysicists theorize that something like this might happen with an object traveling at near the speed of light. Lookin 4 sauce
ClarityAndVision
https://youtu.be/L-s_h5PS7VQ
hungitalianohwaitthisisntgrindr
that is seriously nothing more than a fun “what if” sort of thought experiment. idk if people realize that. but it’s very cool.

Hence my saying "theorize". I agree with you. Just thought it was interesting.
ClarityAndVision
Also this, even though it's wikipedia... Lol https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_kill_vehicle
Kazum
The fireball would be on the side of the impact, because at those speeds air would be compressed to the point of spontaneous nuclear fusion.
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
Even if it did, I'm pretty sure the moon would be vaporized in the process before the human eye could perceive that image
SergeantSalsa
Interesting theory, yes, but the chances of something like this being possible is pretty much an impossibility
TheSourceChode
Please explain!
Drase333
An impact wouldn't look like that. Earth would explode outwards.
definitelynotanorca
Unless the object is dense and is moving fast enough
LoveAndCoffeeButNotNecessarilyInThatOrder
Yes, but what speed would be required, and would it be physically possible to get such a dense object to that speed?
auscaliber
What makes you think you can't get dense objects to near lightspeed?
HighfalutinApe
Maybe...
Kazum
If it moves fast enough to go beyond just leaving a crater, other physics take over. https://what-if.xkcd.com/20/
SergeantSalsa
Please do take into consideration that the Earth is the most dense body in the Solar system. If you want to fuck the dot then yes ..
SergeantSalsa
.. mathematically it is possible. But it is sooo far unlikely that it can basically be ruled out as an impossibility
