This is a slightly different kind of video recommendation, but it would be cool to see you make it: A video that shows the human population growth of the continents from say 100,000 years ago to today.
I love that there's a simulation as it hits the land and not just an image of the explosion. Makes it easier to understand how dangerous these asteroids truly are. Love you work!
@@majorhommy And honestly, anything bigger than that and we're not even talking about craters anymore; we're talking about the possibility of the planet being destroyed.
Still would have been nice to see two earths get crunched together. But I am sure at that level we can all use our imagination as to what it looks like…🌎🌏🤯
@@BuddyLee23 Yeah. If something as small as Ceres could decimate our planet on impact, I'm sure 2 Earths would be the same, if not faster. What got me curious with what you said though is what if it's a gas giant like Jupiter that crunched itself at us? With no solid crust or mantle would we just phase through the planet until we hit its solid core? Or would we be ripped to shreds the moment we enter its atmosphere because of its deadly winds?
As a Muslim Turk, I wanted to write religious information. there is the knowledge that the apocalypse will happen exactly when the world hits a meteorite. and our prophet Muhammad said : the sun will rise from the west . This means that after the collision, the world will start to turn upside down and 3 days later, there is information that life on earth will end. Just like a person dies, he will die in the world and the universe will die and the return to the hereafter will begin. good people in heaven! bad people go to hell :) There is information in the Qur'an, anyone can look at it ...
@@graemestanley8513 Destroying all life and destroying a planet are 2 different things, well destroying a planet comes with destroying all life, but destroying all life doesn't necessarily destroy the whole planet, it just leaves it uninhabitable, life may come back in a few million years after the former life forms were wiped out
This is a slightly different kind of video recommendation, but it would be cool to see you make it: A video that shows the human population growth of the continents from say 100,000 years ago to today.
It'd also be cool to see near-extinction estimates in there as well. I think in one of the most recent ice ages (~70,000 years ago), mankind came extremely close to dying out. I think we didn't have more than 30,000 people on the entire planet at the lowest point, but don't quote me on that. It'd be great to see a visualization of the most accurate estimates.
*On an almost random note:* I think the best defence against a meteorite/meteoroid would be to treat it like an 'architectural structure'. While concentrating on its structure, you would want to use high-powered missiles to create *'fissures'* within the meteoroids 'internal structure'. You want to aim for weak-points within the meteors internal structure; so that when it inevitably collides with the planet's surface, it will immediately shatter and 'fail to fully [efficiently] transfer the entirety of its kinetic energy' across the ground _(the kinetic energy would spread like a water ripple on the planet's solid surface)_ upon impact/point-collision. Every shattered chunk of the meteoroid would symbolise a colossal chunk of kinetic energy that was displaced, and not efficiently transferred upon the point of collision, so that it would violently vibrate/reverberate (as earthquake and shockwaves) and spread across a wide area.
The angelic choir at the end makes so much sense. Everyone on Earth would come together, accept our fate, and a strange peace would wash over us as our home is split in two.
Try desperation, chaos, fear, and unbridled violence and debauchery when people realize there is nothing anyone can do to anyone else punishment wise. Because it's all over.
Man, when this song started playing at 6:04 it gave me goose bumps all over...it's like a song of a final Boss that you are about to face, with the pace of the fight the frenetic and constant rhythm, the disillusion and hope running together through your fingers, with much effort you don't let yourself get worn out in order to give the last breath preparing your final blow that can determine everything in this fight...
Never thought I'd be so invested in a size comparison channel. You're turning these into short scientific epics. They're amazing, continue your work, get others to add to each video the way you did with this one. Absolutely appreciated work, amazing stuff man...
truly Allah predicted meteorites and asteroids 1400 years ago... “We sent down Iron with its great inherent strength and its many benefits for humankind” (Quran 57:25).
Much less damage than I expected until you get to the ~1km size... But remember the damage will vary greatly depending on the composition of the object. An asteroid made of solid iron will do a lot more damage than one made of porous rock.
It's actually velocity that it more a factor. E=.5×(mass×velocity^2) Mass is obviously a big factor but velocity is squared, small increases in speed add a lot more energy.
Not really ,an Iron asteroid would rip through the earth crust and transfer all of its energy to the soil while à Rocky asteroid would implode and splash everything around it .....
There's an event that one-ups everything in this video: According to current theories, something the size of Mars hit the Earth very early in its history. Some of the debris thrown into space by this event coalesced and formed the Moon.
I've heard this. I think they called the planet Thea. I could be wrong though. It's be cool to see this done with this software instead of Universe Sandbox 2 letsplays
Except this is specifically pointing at asteroids, Theia was a planet, and then you might be saying that not asteroid objects like listed Ceres shouldn't be put into these lists, but Ceres was *originally* an asteroid before being reclassified as a dwarf planet as somebody said in the replies of another comment
Couple things left out of these simulations, one is the plasma shockwave in front of large impactors. The atmosphere would get pushed and compressed in front of it because it can't get out of the way fast enough. It would hit before the impactor. Another is a large impactor would create a plume of debris that would rise up its path as it plows a vacuum channel through the atmosphere. Large impacts will create a rebound peak in the center. You can actually see these in some of the ancient lake craters in Canada.
I am also assuming an object larger than 100m travelling at say 20km/s will eject plasma back into space upon impact. The kinetic energy of the boloid exceeding the molecular binding energy of the iron/silicate/ice/nickel of the object
I love how with the larger asteroids you see effects of it hitting atmosphere initially. The classic movie scene of where we see it flying through sky slowly is unrealistic. Enters and hits in a few seconds and if you could see it enter you would be blinded and badly burnt ( best case ) due to huge energy.
Yeah, the K-Pg impactor was moving so quickly that the pressure wave was already carving out the crater while it was still in space, and it punched a hole clear through the atmosphere and led to a vacuum effect that would've ejected Earth materials far out into space. There are probably chunks of Dinosaur as far out as Jupiter, maybe even further, depending on the position of planets in relation to Earth.
Dude if I am close enough to see it i would rather be at ground zero of the impact area. I choose the quick and sudden death option, over knowing death is approaching from the opposite hemisphere option. SHEEEEEE-IT!
@@kutsja4671 what do you mean? If you go to New York you can still see all the buildings. And this video clearly shows that the asteroid hit New York. So no am asteroid can’t flatten all those buildings.
The Ceres impact gave me chills with the religious chanting, like watching two ancient gods waging war. It's crazy to think this happened to Earth a long time ago when it collided with the planet Theia, giving birth to the Moon. In greek mythology Theia was the goddess of divine light and sight and the mother of Selene goddess of the moon, hence the name Theia. What's even crazier is that if Theia had never collided with Earth we wouldn't even be here.
we actually would but we would have severe different applications and problems to live, plus theia was probably way too close to the earth to stay in a stable orbit
Dinosaurs roaming the Earth for 120 million years, and then puff..... They extinct in matter of few hundred years, that's how powerful asteroid impact is.
@@ErnestJay88 events like that only happen every few million years or something I forgot, but any impacts that could actually threaten your life, are incredibly unlikely. first, as the video said, an asteroid just barely big enough to wipe out a city only happens every few hundreds of years. they also barely ever strike populated areas, usually landing In ocears or forests. no need to worry about anything
It's far easier, and even far more likely, that life will be ended by a force on this planet. We'll do it to ourselves long before the next big rock shows up.
The last one is the ensured end of ALL life on Earth, not just humanity. For mankind, anything starting from the 20 km one would probably be enough. You are already well in the scale of global mass extinction event (like the dinosaurs).
I was suprised by the dramatic feel of the video with the music and visuals and I LOVED it! I expected something much more tame and educational like most comparring videos and that was something else!
6:40 What terrifies me is that, once the shockwave hits me from this one, I have only 6 seconds left to live before the fire wall gets to me. Imagine feeling your entire world shake, surviving that by a miracle, and not being able to even see your loved ones.
The fun fact about that last asteroid is that it would still take ~24 hours for the fire wave to reach the other side of Earth. Imagine being on the other side of earth, assuming you survived the major earhquakes, you would still have to wait 24 hours before you're inevitable death.
@@Spoopy_man But that's my point, that wave of heat/fire that can melt limestone still has to move across the world and has a speed limit way below the speed of sound, ergo the ~24 hours.
Impact sizes: * 4m, 1.4 years, (just an airburst in space) * 20m (similar to Chelyabinsk event), 70 years, (airburst and shockwave) * 50m, 900 years, (huge airburst and massive shockwave) * 90m (similar to Tunguska event), 4500 years, (a meteor this big caused a collision, with a destruction size of a small city, 1.16 km crater) * 370m (similar to 99942 APOPHIS), 97000 years, (collision, with a destruction size of a large city, 5.68 km crater) 1 km, 500000 years (collision, with a destruction large enough to destroy the entire New York metropolitan area, 14 km crater) * 20 km (similar to Chicxulub event that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago) 490 million years, (collision, with a destruction size of Nigeria, 200 km crater) * 100 km, 4 billion years, (collision, with a destruction size of Eurasia, 840 km crater) * 940 km (Ceres), 4 billion years, (collision, massive planetwide destruction)
the one that killed dinosaurs was over 6-11km wide and thats enough to produce a mass extintion level event. And a 100km asteoroid would wipe out earth easily
@@zamnodorszk7898 I guess the only size we can scrape by right now is probably the 90m. The downing of 1 country would ripple across the entire global civilization. And if we keep hoarding cash individually instead of pouring it into advancing our Level of civilization to a point where we could have interstellar defense system, we are just a floating rock sitting ducks going really fast in space.
@@Steven-pp2ci The 100k one is similar to the one from Iceland. Which is why i wasn't for the ending of the movie being as hopeful as it was. If you watch the movie as it shows earth you can see that by all accounts the surface is pretty much dead and the final one did wipe out most of Europe hitting just above Germany and wiping sizable chunks of the continent. It wouldn't destroy Earth but it likely would pretty much make it incapable of supporting any life unless it was deep in ocean trenches by vents or deep underground far enough away from the initial impact.
The ones to be worried about are those 20 meter ones. they happen semi-frequently, are near impossible to spot, and can cause destruction if it hits just right.
@@stormforge68 Considering the year it happened it would have been for the worst. Russia wouldn't have weakened NAZI Germany during world war 2 leaving Hitler to dominate Europe and Imperial Japan to dominate the Pacific.
Earth collided with a very large object quite early in its' history. Probably larger than Ceres depicted here, which most probably led to the birth of our moon. Fortunately, at the time, Earth was pretty much still in a molten state. The frequency of some of these asteroids was a bit closer than I'm comfortable with.
It is speculated that the Earth collided with Theia, a planet almost the size of Mars around four billion years ago. The result was an increase in Earth’s mass and size, and the majority of the ejecta flung into orbit accreted and became The Moon. Other smaller chunks that were flung further away in the billions of years following the collision were probably responsible for the heavy bombardment of the Lunar surface, come to think of it…
Yeah; it was _absolutely_ larger than Ceres if the Moon was a fragment of it, because even the Moon is much larger than Ceres. Theia is believed to have been the size of _Mars._
@@davecrupel2817based on those asteroid test recently it seems like we can deflect it's orbit. The ones we don't have to worry about are the ones we have already recorded into databases somewhere i would say
Also , the explosion isn't the only bad thing going on... if the planet survives the initial blast then we got to worry about the purest form of chaos that will very shortly follow
from climate changes to years of nights and winter to death of millions of species of flora and fauna, economical death, the whole idea of humanity, society, everything will be gone and that's just a 1km asteroid. ONE DAMN KM! Like from my home to the next store and the whole world is gone, damn. Funny that after knowing all this info, people are still fking with money, place in society, wars and hate... we are so worthless
It has survived several of the smaller ones without issue. The Tunguska event happened in the middle of nowhere. In human history, volcanoes have done more damage than any of the meteor impacts. Now, the impacts that happened long before we showed up are another matter. Not too many humans would survive a Chicxulub type event, at least not for the duration of the nuclear winter that would follow.
Primer video que veo en youtube que puedo decir que es una obra maestra, tanto como la animación, la forma en que hablan de cada tipo de asteroide y sus caractericas.. pero debo admitir que la musica al final fue un toque sublime.. se me llego a poner la piel de gallina.., 10/10, master piece of video! Thanks for you job.
@Mauricio Muñoz si pero tambien bruh es una palabra usada en la comunidad dank anglosajona que se se utiliza para indicar un momento divertido,random raro (aleatorio en ingles) . Aunque mucha gente lo utiliza simplemente por que da gracia sigo sin rntender el punto de tus 2 comentarios
That Discovery Channel video edited with "Great Gig in the Sky" is still the best after all these years. Something about the song just completes it, like they were always meant to go together.
The last 2 would have created tidal waves of Earth's crust as it peels back like a banana. What it didn't show was the hundreds of thousands of mountain sized chunks coming back and hitting the earth a second time, each causing its own event as bad as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs. Both of them would completely sterilize the entire planet easily up to a mile below the surface. You might get an extra day or so on the 100 km one but that's about it.
@XENENEX Fortunately the bigger ones of that size are almost all confined to the astroid belt in stable orbits or well beyond the large bodies in the Oort cloud. The initial period of accretion ate them all up and became part of the major bodies in the solar system. They did make a movie about an asteroid that size hitting the earth, it's was about 70 miles in diameter and the movie was "Seeking a Friend For the End of the World". Some people in it were acting as if survival was an option, with small underground bunkers but the millions of large fragments would have taken them out as well. Life itself might never come back from such an event since like the last guy said it's never happened since life emerged on planet earth.
Great stuff... and what people need to realize is that these are just the immediate effects... the one that killed the Dinosaurs was only 11km (6-7 miles wide), and it was the long term effects afterward that caused it to be an ELE.
Makes you appreciate just how much we rely on the atmosphere not just to support life but to break up the smaller meteors/asteroids. That'd certainly be a consideration if we were to set up manned bases on planets without an atmosphere in the distant future.
This is by far the greatest simulation video of anything I’ve ever seen, and it being about asteroids just makes it even more amazing, absolutely incredible job!
I love the accurate depictions in mathematical comparison this channel is great I love it please keep the content coming I will always be subscribed to this channel I can hardly await your next video
2:13 and 2:39 are peak sound design. The music and sounds make the explosions a spectacle and very epic. Audio, when done right, can make explosions a thousands times cooler.
It's important to consider that as well as *_Size,_* both the *_Density_* & *_Composition_* of a *Meteorite* are serious factors in how extraordinarily dangerous they are - with small, but dense (eg: *Nickel/Iron-rich), Meteorites* being the biggest threat to human life. Due to their *_Small Diameter_* & *_Low Albedo_* they're significantly more difficult to detect (a tiny black dot against the background), as well as more likely to remain an intact mass at impact than *Chondritic Meteorites* (⊚). Deflecting a small one - Diameter: *60 Meters* Composition: *90% Iron* (at *7,870kg/m³)* Velocity: *17km/s* (or *61,200km/h)* Mass: *800,000,000kg* *(Iron* is seriously heavy!) Kinetic Energy: *115,600,000,000* *Megajoules Released on Impact!!!* - is theoretically within our technological capability (barely), but would take the kind of essential *Early Detection, Preparation* & *Planning* that simply isn't being done (largely due to political inertia, arrogance, ignorance & sheer stupidity). In order to change the vector of an approaching *Asteroid,* we'd need to use a remotely operated spacecraft drone that's packed full of *Nuclear Warheads* (the *United States* conveniently has about *5,000* of the damned things) to convert the *Asteroid* into an *Orion-Type Spacecraft* & steer it away (perhaps towards the Sun) - long before it could possibly intersect with *Earth's* orbit. Y'know, given the _humungous_ amount of *Iron* that even a small-ish *60 meter* diameter *Nickel-Iron* asteroid would contain, it's a damn shame that we can't capture one, stick it out at *Earth/Lunar Lagrange 5* to convert it into (quite literally) thousands of *Space-Based Engineering Projects.* (Not yet, anyway. Give us a few more decades of propulsion & robotics development, then who knows..?) ~ ~ ⊚ - *Chondritic Meteorites* are a fused mass of myriad *Organic* & *Siliceous* compounds which tends to shatter due to friction with the atmosphere. This is 'cause some parts get tremendously hotter than others & expand really, really quickly, thus breaking the *Meteor* apart - into thousands of smaller falling, flaming rocks... (Ummm, yay..!?)
@@LadyMcGiusti Pretty much. [ _Note that my example was about a much smaller _*_60 Meter Diameter Meteor_*_ & what we would need to do to prevent it from impacting the Earth._ ] When it comes to your monstrous *One Hundred Kilometer (100km) Diameter Iron-rich Rock,* however, it would be more accurate to say that it's compression bow wave would evaporate all the Oceans, shatter the Crust to bits & trigger immense subterranean waves of magma sloshing 'round in the Mantle surrounding the dense Core, messing up the dynamics of Earth's protective Magnetic Shield for a good few million years. (Everything would cool down eventually, and maybe - if we're very, very lucky - a few very hardy Extremophile Micro-Organisms may ha:ve hung on in the moist cracks of some underground oasis - so *Life* itself could survive...) *_Humans, on the other hand (& all our works), would of course be wiped from existence in mere moments (⊚)..._* From the time of the impact, tremendous shockwaves would propagate through *The Atmosphere* (making temperatures briefly spike to a few Thousand Kelvin, rapidly incinerating all organic matter, before gradually radiating away into space), *The Crust* (making it look somewhat like a pane of glass that's been hit with a hammer, only with more ripples) & eventually, the Mantle (with massive waves radiating down from the Impact Site, only to be blocked/absorbed by the dense Iron Core, wrapping round & around the planet thousands of times, before gradually dampening down to create a completely new pattern of currents through the Magma. Some surviving fragments of your Monster Meteorite that have punched down this deep, would gradually melt & disintegrate & eventually become a new layer of Iron around the Earth's Core). Once the Death Rain of falling rock debris (ranging from huge, house sized chunks - to toxic dust) & melted Glass Bullets shooting down from near orbit have ceased (after a few weeks), the Atmospheric damage would begin to stabilise. Over the next few centuries, it would become a denser (& with a perpetually opaque cloud layer) mix of familiar & bizarre gasses (though with significantly less free O₂, as the high heat would have forced it to bond to minerals more readily. It took the better part of 2 Billion Years for chemotrophic bacteria & photosynthetic algae to release the tiny amount (20.946% of the total atmosphere) that we breathe. Something like 80% of all the Oxygen on Earth remains chemically bonded to the rock & magma deep below our feet.) The dense cloud layer would trap much of the heat from the Meteor Impact (& later sunlight), to make the Earth a sweltering hellhole of temperatures reaching 60°C at the Equator... Lava (& volcanic gasses) would come bubbling up from all the new cracks in the Crust, coating the surface of the Earth in a nearly singular new shell that's many kilometers thick. For a few Millennia, Aeons, even Millions of Years, the Earth would resemble it's planetary neighbour, Venus. Then, through external effects (like the Moon's gravitational tidal effect) & internal effects (like the thermodynamic currents of the Mantle), Plate Tectonics would restart. The Atmosphere & Oceans would return as an anachronistic toxic mess (from Three Billion Years Ago) & tiny specks of *Life* - having hidden away for millennia - would start to *_Evolve_* to fit it's new environment (from near scratch) inevitably building complexity all over again... ⊚ - Except for a couple of bits of technology still up on the Moon. Unfortunately, while our beautiful silver satellite may be far enough away to avoid most of the heavier fragments of exploded Meteorite & Crust, the Cloud of finer Dust & Debris would develop into a vast set of rings around the Earth, some of which would likely end up coating the Earth-Side aspect of the Moon with a few milimeters of Iron-rich dust, making it go a dark grey (& also make it's albedo drop significantly), before the remainder falls back to Earth.
That's interesting. But surely the angle and velocity of the impact is important. I'd also imagine some of the larger impacts would evacuate most of our atmosphere away. Also with an astroid as large as Ceres, I'd expect gravity to start ripping it apart before impact
@@Xpwnxage Yeah exactly right. Our atmosphere is pretty much just a film over the planet, and many other planets have actually lost their atmosphere over time. It would not regenerate, it would just be gone. Scary.
@1992jamo Actually, it would regenerate, it would just take millions of years. The nitrogen, argon, oxygen, etc., in our atmosphere would eventually return once the planet (and the small moon this last impact might create) cooled off enough.
Only if in orbit, with direct collision like in the video Ceres is in a quick free fall, so no ripping apart. It is possible to rip apart if the speed is slow when there is difference in acceleration for a long enough time, but with direct collision I doubt it, 20 km/sec is too fast. It will probably deform Ceres towards Earth.
I love how in any life ending global event, there's always some ancient Georgian or Indian music playing, clearly indicating all life will perish, as it did when Ceres struck earth. Good job 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
On a related note, I have long thought that nuclear bomb tourism - paying to see an above-ground nuclear explosion from a safe distance - would be great fun. I know I would pay to see one. Maybe that’s as close one could get to the experience in this video?
@@BuddyLee23 Would be something to see. I remember a witness to an atomic bomb test said the light was so bright that when he covered his eyes with his hands he could see the bones in his hand. Thats insane!
this is beautifully done and well researched, I applaud you. If I could make one little suggestion; if you redo this one, add a Venus or Theia size impact to show the effects of the Earth either completely shattering to bits or blowing off material to create another Moon.
This is truly a masterpiece of CGI, not enough simulations online go into such detail with small more frequent and more likely impacts like you show here and you still showed the massive ones to awesome work dude. I also think that a field of asteroids like many many small to medium sized ones mostly small ones impact earth more frequently and more often then the massive largest ones. I think that lots of small ones covering the earth could easily do more damage to civilization then people might think. Gravitational forces could pull pieces off of a large weakened structure and pull the small bits to earth that lack the momentum of the large piece to avoid the planets gravity.
Love the work! Big fan!!! The chixalub impactor was so devastating it’s hard comprehend. I would love to see your interpretation of not just the initial impact event, but the effects of the millions of tons of ejecta that re-entered the atmosphere, and literally boiled our planet! :)
@@ilmanlynn Ceres is the biggest asteroid in our solar system, It's an unlikely hypothetical that would crack our crust like an egg, ignite the atmosphere and would require speculation and simulated physics to get an answer on how the planet deforms. Meanwhile the chixalub impact did happen, recently in the history of earth and came pretty close to ending complex life. Theres alot more data and its alot more interesting.
These only show the primary effects of the collision though. The Chicxulub event (a 20km asteroid) set most of North and South America on fire, and devastated the entire planet's climate for centuries afterwards. It wasn't just a single big bang and "too bad if you were directly under it". Past a certain size of explosion, there's nowhere safe left on the entire planet. As it was, it was basically miraculous that the Tunguska meteoroid hit a vast, mostly uninhabited area.
What a fantastic video. The research into it was great despite there being a few errors. Namely the Ceres impact time. Probably one of my favourite impact simulations.
Just a thought to keep in mind for the next one, maybe include an estimated average death & injury toll? There are a lot of writers out there trying to figure out what the catastrophic effects would be, but craters alone kind of diminishes the (pun intended) impact of these kinds of disasters without a death toll estimate. (Obviously I'm talking the first & smallest sets of asteroids, not Paris or later.)
The music for the 100km asteroid striking Rome is so freaking good. Though it's weird having such a miraculous-sounding soundtrack to accompany the deaths of at least a few billion people, and probably the entire human population of the earth, and likely all life on earth.
the fireball would not be enough to reach the entire planet, but it would still wipe out 90% of life as we know it.. maybe not all of them die immediately after the impact, but through all the dirt that got into the earth's atmosphere, humanity would die out on the surface and only those hidden far below the earth survive.. for us humans there would be nothing left to eat on earth and entire crops would die off.. the rain turns to sulfuric acid which wipes out life
The last one is awesome because I'm pretty sure that's how our Moon was created. At least something that size or bigger a few billion years ago. Also, thanks for making the "smaller" asteroids hit the USA like in the movies and the big ass ones hit somewhere else.
this theory was only created to accomadate with the analysis of the apollo rock samples.which basically said it was equivalent tobthe rocks on earth. all of that was then thought out to match those incredible results. it is only as valid as is the original assumption.

With no solid crust or mantle would we just phase through the planet until we hit its solid core? Or would we be ripped to shreds the moment we enter its atmosphere because of its deadly winds?

This is a slightly different kind of video recommendation, but it would be cool to see you make it: A video that shows the human population growth of the continents from say 100,000 years ago to today.
Yes
Human population masses as hills of minced meat left to flatten under gravity, hence a footprint of sorts.
It'd also be cool to see near-extinction estimates in there as well. I think in one of the most recent ice ages (~70,000 years ago), mankind came extremely close to dying out. I think we didn't have more than 30,000 people on the entire planet at the lowest point, but don't quote me on that. It'd be great to see a visualization of the most accurate estimates.
Oh yeah that would be cool

*On an almost random note:*
I think the best defence against a meteorite/meteoroid would be to treat it like an 'architectural structure'. While concentrating on its structure, you would want to use high-powered missiles to create *'fissures'* within the meteoroids 'internal structure'. You want to aim for weak-points within the meteors internal structure; so that when it inevitably collides with the planet's surface, it will immediately shatter and 'fail to fully [efficiently] transfer the entirety of its kinetic energy' across the ground _(the kinetic energy would spread like a water ripple on the planet's solid surface)_ upon impact/point-collision.
Every shattered chunk of the meteoroid would symbolise a colossal chunk of kinetic energy that was displaced, and not efficiently transferred upon the point of collision, so that it would violently vibrate/reverberate (as earthquake and shockwaves) and spread across a wide area.

This was beautifully made. I don't know what these would look like in real life but this is good enough to feel like I saw every one in real life.
Much less damage than I expected until you get to the ~1km size... But remember the damage will vary greatly depending on the composition of the object. An asteroid made of solid iron will do a lot more damage than one made of porous rock.
No one cares what a MAGA thinks.
It's actually velocity that it more a factor.
E=.5×(mass×velocity^2)
Mass is obviously a big factor but velocity is squared, small increases in speed add a lot more energy.
The Russian astorid r is of 2015 small but caused a lot of damage to the surrounding area it hit.
i think when i would be made ot of porous rock the astroid would just brun up depending on the size ofcourse
Not really ,an Iron asteroid would rip through the earth crust and transfer all of its energy to the soil while à Rocky asteroid would implode and splash everything around it .....
There's an event that one-ups everything in this video: According to current theories, something the size of Mars hit the Earth very early in its history. Some of the debris thrown into space by this event coalesced and formed the Moon.
I've heard this. I think they called the planet Thea. I could be wrong though. It's be cool to see this done with this software instead of Universe Sandbox 2 letsplays
Those are the 2 to 3 billion year events

Something as big as Pluto hit Mars a few hundred million years ago. It created the Borealis Basin, the biggest impact crater in the solar system.
The Best asteroid comparison (sound & visual) EVER!!!
Goosebumps all over it’s like a real deal.
Couple things left out of these simulations, one is the plasma shockwave in front of large impactors. The atmosphere would get pushed and compressed in front of it because it can't get out of the way fast enough. It would hit before the impactor. Another is a large impactor would create a plume of debris that would rise up its path as it plows a vacuum channel through the atmosphere.
Large impacts will create a rebound peak in the center. You can actually see these in some of the ancient lake craters in Canada.
I was glad to see your comment.
The channel ingomar200 does terrific computer graphic simulations showing these additional, critical effects.
@@phoenixjim0527 Great to see that some people really do care about the actual accuracy of the simulations!
I am also assuming an object larger than 100m travelling at say 20km/s will eject plasma back into space upon impact. The kinetic energy of the boloid exceeding the molecular binding energy of the iron/silicate/ice/nickel of the object
Even the Tsunami events that will take place post shockwaves in the oceans
Thanks for the info Sheldon Cooper!
I love how with the larger asteroids you see effects of it hitting atmosphere initially. The classic movie scene of where we see it flying through sky slowly is unrealistic. Enters and hits in a few seconds and if you could see it enter you would be blinded and badly burnt ( best case ) due to huge energy.
agreed
The Expanse did it pretty well
@@Jarandjar agreed. Hey have you seen the James webb pics? Amazing.
Yeah, the K-Pg impactor was moving so quickly that the pressure wave was already carving out the crater while it was still in space, and it punched a hole clear through the atmosphere and led to a vacuum effect that would've ejected Earth materials far out into space. There are probably chunks of Dinosaur as far out as Jupiter, maybe even further, depending on the position of planets in relation to Earth.
Dude if I am close enough to see it i would rather be at ground zero of the impact area. I choose the quick and sudden death option, over knowing death is approaching from the opposite hemisphere option. SHEEEEEE-IT!

*CERES - **_"Why do I hear boss music?"_*
The Ceres impact gave me chills with the religious chanting, like watching two ancient gods waging war. It's crazy to think this happened to Earth a long time ago when it collided with the planet Theia, giving birth to the Moon. In greek mythology Theia was the goddess of divine light and sight and the mother of Selene goddess of the moon, hence the name Theia. What's even crazier is that if Theia had never collided with Earth we wouldn't even be here.
Theia was roughly Mars sized iirc so even more devastating than the Ceres impact.
sterilisation class impact
Bro the moon is an alien spacecraft
The earth turns into sun
we actually would
but we would have severe different applications
and problems to live,
plus theia was probably way too close to the earth to stay in a stable orbit

The fun fact about that last asteroid is that it would still take ~24 hours for the fire wave to reach the other side of Earth. Imagine being on the other side of earth, assuming you survived the major earhquakes, you would still have to wait 24 hours before you're inevitable death.
But the temperature would rise so much that you don't need to wait for the wave to die.
@@Spoopy_man But that's my point, that wave of heat/fire that can melt limestone still has to move across the world and has a speed limit way below the speed of sound, ergo the ~24 hours.
Impact sizes:
* 4m, 1.4 years, (just an airburst in space)
* 20m (similar to Chelyabinsk event), 70 years, (airburst and shockwave)
* 50m, 900 years, (huge airburst and massive shockwave)
* 90m (similar to Tunguska event), 4500 years, (a meteor this big caused a collision, with a destruction size of a small city, 1.16 km crater)
* 370m (similar to 99942 APOPHIS), 97000 years, (collision, with a destruction size of a large city, 5.68 km crater)
1 km, 500000 years (collision, with a destruction large enough to destroy the entire New York metropolitan area, 14 km crater)
* 20 km (similar to Chicxulub event that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago) 490 million years, (collision, with a destruction size of Nigeria, 200 km crater)
* 100 km, 4 billion years, (collision, with a destruction size of Eurasia, 840 km crater)
* 940 km (Ceres), 4 billion years, (collision, massive planetwide destruction)
Even the 1km would cause massive disruption to human life and economies due to the effects of atmospheric ejection.
the one that killed dinosaurs was over 6-11km wide and thats enough to produce a mass extintion level event. And a 100km asteoroid would wipe out earth easily
@@zamnodorszk7898 I guess the only size we can scrape by right now is probably the 90m. The downing of 1 country would ripple across the entire global civilization. And if we keep hoarding cash individually instead of pouring it into advancing our Level of civilization to a point where we could have interstellar defense system, we are just a floating rock sitting ducks going really fast in space.
@@Steven-pp2ci The 100k one is similar to the one from Iceland. Which is why i wasn't for the ending of the movie being as hopeful as it was.
If you watch the movie as it shows earth you can see that by all accounts the surface is pretty much dead and the final one did wipe out most of Europe hitting just above Germany and wiping sizable chunks of the continent. It wouldn't destroy Earth but it likely would pretty much make it incapable of supporting any life unless it was deep in ocean trenches by vents or deep underground far enough away from the initial impact.
Thank you! I am blind and couldn't watch this video.
The ones to be worried about are those 20 meter ones. they happen semi-frequently, are near impossible to spot, and can cause destruction if it hits just right.

Little question - What software did you make this in?
Earth collided with a very large object quite early in its' history. Probably larger than Ceres depicted here, which most probably led to the birth of our moon. Fortunately, at the time, Earth was pretty much still in a molten state. The frequency of some of these asteroids was a bit closer than I'm comfortable with.
It is speculated that the Earth collided with Theia, a planet almost the size of Mars around four billion years ago. The result was an increase in Earth’s mass and size, and the majority of the ejecta flung into orbit accreted and became The Moon.
Other smaller chunks that were flung further away in the billions of years following the collision were probably responsible for the heavy bombardment of the Lunar surface, come to think of it…
Yeah; it was _absolutely_ larger than Ceres if the Moon was a fragment of it, because even the Moon is much larger than Ceres.
Theia is believed to have been the size of _Mars._
Apophis is the one that scares the fuck out of me.
That one *will* strike Earth sooner or later, if we can not do anything about it.
The so called birth of the moon is the most pathetic and garbage story forcefully put upon us by LGBT scientist.
@@davecrupel2817based on those asteroid test recently it seems like we can deflect it's orbit. The ones we don't have to worry about are the ones we have already recorded into databases somewhere i would say
Also , the explosion isn't the only bad thing going on... if the planet survives the initial blast then we got to worry about the purest form of chaos that will very shortly follow
from climate changes to years of nights and winter to death of millions of species of flora and fauna, economical death, the whole idea of humanity, society, everything will be gone and that's just a 1km asteroid. ONE DAMN KM! Like from my home to the next store and the whole world is gone, damn. Funny that after knowing all this info, people are still fking with money, place in society, wars and hate... we are so worthless
I have a feeling that if Ceres were to crash into Earth we wouldn't have to worry about the chaos that follows at any point afterwards at all...
What do you mean by 'we' then?
It has survived several of the smaller ones without issue. The Tunguska event happened in the middle of nowhere. In human history, volcanoes have done more damage than any of the meteor impacts. Now, the impacts that happened long before we showed up are another matter. Not too many humans would survive a Chicxulub type event, at least not for the duration of the nuclear winter that would follow.
@Maarten Allegaert nah you're right that would kill all of us almost instantly

That Discovery Channel video edited with "Great Gig in the Sky" is still the best after all these years. Something about the song just completes it, like they were always meant to go together.
That last astroid impact was so cinematic. Loved it.
would have been interesting to see tidal waves resulting from sea impacts.
The last 2 would have created tidal waves of Earth's crust as it peels back like a banana. What it didn't show was the hundreds of thousands of mountain sized chunks coming back and hitting the earth a second time, each causing its own event as bad as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs. Both of them would completely sterilize the entire planet easily up to a mile below the surface. You might get an extra day or so on the 100 km one but that's about it.
A asteroid the size of 100km has never hit the earth while life has existed on earth. The biggest asteroid that ever hit the earth is 12-15km max
@XENENEX Fortunately the bigger ones of that size are almost all confined to the astroid belt in stable orbits or well beyond the large bodies in the Oort cloud. The initial period of accretion ate them all up and became part of the major bodies in the solar system. They did make a movie about an asteroid that size hitting the earth, it's was about 70 miles in diameter and the movie was "Seeking a Friend For the End of the World". Some people in it were acting as if survival was an option, with small underground bunkers but the millions of large fragments would have taken them out as well. Life itself might never come back from such an event since like the last guy said it's never happened since life emerged on planet earth.

Great stuff... and what people need to realize is that these are just the immediate effects... the one that killed the Dinosaurs was only 11km (6-7 miles wide), and it was the long term effects afterward that caused it to be an ELE.
Makes you appreciate just how much we rely on the atmosphere not just to support life but to break up the smaller meteors/asteroids. That'd certainly be a consideration if we were to set up manned bases on planets without an atmosphere in the distant future.

It's important to consider that as well as *_Size,_* both the *_Density_* & *_Composition_* of a *Meteorite* are serious factors in how extraordinarily dangerous they are - with small, but dense (eg: *Nickel/Iron-rich), Meteorites* being the biggest threat to human life.
Due to their *_Small Diameter_* & *_Low Albedo_* they're significantly more difficult to detect (a tiny black dot against the background), as well as more likely to remain an intact mass at impact than *Chondritic Meteorites* (⊚). Deflecting a small one -
Diameter: *60 Meters*
Composition: *90% Iron* (at *7,870kg/m³)*
Velocity: *17km/s* (or *61,200km/h)*
Mass: *800,000,000kg*
*(Iron* is seriously heavy!)
Kinetic Energy: *115,600,000,000*
*Megajoules Released on Impact!!!*
- is theoretically within our technological capability (barely), but would take the kind of essential *Early Detection, Preparation* & *Planning* that simply isn't being done (largely due to political inertia, arrogance, ignorance & sheer stupidity).
In order to change the vector of an approaching *Asteroid,* we'd need to use a remotely operated spacecraft drone that's packed full of *Nuclear Warheads* (the *United States* conveniently has about *5,000* of the damned things) to convert the *Asteroid* into an *Orion-Type Spacecraft* & steer it away (perhaps towards the Sun) - long before it could possibly intersect with *Earth's* orbit.
Y'know, given the _humungous_ amount of *Iron* that even a small-ish *60 meter* diameter *Nickel-Iron* asteroid would contain, it's a damn shame that we can't capture one, stick it out at *Earth/Lunar Lagrange 5* to convert it into (quite literally) thousands of *Space-Based Engineering Projects.*
(Not yet, anyway. Give us a few more decades of propulsion & robotics development, then who knows..?)
~ ~
⊚ - *Chondritic Meteorites* are a fused mass of myriad *Organic* & *Siliceous* compounds which tends to shatter due to friction with the atmosphere. This is 'cause some parts get tremendously hotter than others & expand really, really quickly, thus breaking the *Meteor* apart - into thousands of smaller falling, flaming rocks...
(Ummm, yay..!?)
A 100 km wide asteroid made out of iron will destroy the earth!?!
@@LadyMcGiusti Pretty much.
[ _Note that my example was about a much smaller _*_60 Meter Diameter Meteor_*_ & what we would need to do to prevent it from impacting the Earth._ ]
When it comes to your monstrous *One Hundred Kilometer (100km) Diameter Iron-rich Rock,* however, it would be more accurate to say that it's compression bow wave would evaporate all the Oceans, shatter the Crust to bits & trigger immense subterranean waves of magma sloshing 'round in the Mantle surrounding the dense Core, messing up the dynamics of Earth's protective Magnetic Shield for a good few million years. (Everything would cool down eventually, and maybe - if we're very, very lucky - a few very hardy Extremophile Micro-Organisms may ha:ve hung on in the moist cracks of some underground oasis - so *Life* itself could survive...)
*_Humans, on the other hand (& all our works), would of course be wiped from existence in mere moments (⊚)..._*
From the time of the impact, tremendous shockwaves would propagate through *The Atmosphere* (making temperatures briefly spike to a few Thousand Kelvin, rapidly incinerating all organic matter, before gradually radiating away into space), *The Crust* (making it look somewhat like a pane of glass that's been hit with a hammer, only with more ripples) & eventually, the Mantle (with massive waves radiating down from the Impact Site, only to be blocked/absorbed by the dense Iron Core, wrapping round & around the planet thousands of times, before gradually dampening down to create a completely new pattern of currents through the Magma. Some surviving fragments of your Monster Meteorite that have punched down this deep, would gradually melt & disintegrate & eventually become a new layer of Iron around the Earth's Core).
Once the Death Rain of falling rock debris (ranging from huge, house sized chunks - to toxic dust) & melted Glass Bullets shooting down from near orbit have ceased (after a few weeks), the Atmospheric damage would begin to stabilise. Over the next few centuries, it would become a denser (& with a perpetually opaque cloud layer) mix of familiar & bizarre gasses (though with significantly less free O₂, as the high heat would have forced it to bond to minerals more readily. It took the better part of 2 Billion Years for chemotrophic bacteria & photosynthetic algae to release the tiny amount (20.946% of the total atmosphere) that we breathe. Something like 80% of all the Oxygen on Earth remains chemically bonded to the rock & magma deep below our feet.) The dense cloud layer would trap much of the heat from the Meteor Impact (& later sunlight), to make the Earth a sweltering hellhole of temperatures reaching 60°C at the Equator...
Lava (& volcanic gasses) would come bubbling up from all the new cracks in the Crust, coating the surface of the Earth in a nearly singular new shell that's many kilometers thick. For a few Millennia, Aeons, even Millions of Years, the Earth would resemble it's planetary neighbour, Venus. Then, through external effects (like the Moon's gravitational tidal effect) & internal effects (like the thermodynamic currents of the Mantle), Plate Tectonics would restart. The Atmosphere & Oceans would return as an anachronistic toxic mess (from Three Billion Years Ago) & tiny specks of *Life* - having hidden away for millennia - would start to *_Evolve_* to fit it's new environment (from near scratch) inevitably building complexity all over again...
⊚ - Except for a couple of bits of technology still up on the Moon. Unfortunately, while our beautiful silver satellite may be far enough away to avoid most of the heavier fragments of exploded Meteorite & Crust, the Cloud of finer Dust & Debris would develop into a vast set of rings around the Earth, some of which would likely end up coating the Earth-Side aspect of the Moon with a few milimeters of Iron-rich dust, making it go a dark grey (& also make it's albedo drop significantly), before the remainder falls back to Earth.

That's interesting. But surely the angle and velocity of the impact is important. I'd also imagine some of the larger impacts would evacuate most of our atmosphere away. Also with an astroid as large as Ceres, I'd expect gravity to start ripping it apart before impact
Yes, Ceres couldn't make it through the Roche Limit.
What does that mean "evacuate the atmosphere"? Like it takes the atmosphere away from Earth? Would it ever regenerate?
@@Xpwnxage Yeah exactly right. Our atmosphere is pretty much just a film over the planet, and many other planets have actually lost their atmosphere over time.
It would not regenerate, it would just be gone. Scary.
@1992jamo Actually, it would regenerate, it would just take millions of years. The nitrogen, argon, oxygen, etc., in our atmosphere would eventually return once the planet (and the small moon this last impact might create) cooled off enough.
Only if in orbit, with direct collision like in the video Ceres is in a quick free fall, so no ripping apart. It is possible to rip apart if the speed is slow when there is difference in acceleration for a long enough time, but with direct collision I doubt it, 20 km/sec is too fast. It will probably deform Ceres towards Earth.
When the monks start chanting you know it's over 🥲
Again, very impressive. The science of these impacts is scary, it's a good thing they don't happen often.
You know it's game over when the Franciscan monks start chanting
I love how in any life ending global event, there's always some ancient Georgian or Indian music playing, clearly indicating all life will perish, as it did when Ceres struck earth. Good job 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The production quality of this is through the roof! I really enjoyed this unique presentation.
It's amazing to see how far this channel has come.
It ain’t threw the roof it’s threw the earth
6:40 i think we can all agree that this is what the world needs right now
Yup.👍
This was awesome. Lets just hope this is the closest to the real thing we'll ever have to experience.
On a related note, I have long thought that nuclear bomb tourism - paying to see an above-ground nuclear explosion from a safe distance - would be great fun. I know I would pay to see one. Maybe that’s as close one could get to the experience in this video?
@@BuddyLee23 Would be something to see. I remember a witness to an atomic bomb test said the light was so bright that when he covered his eyes with his hands he could see the bones in his hand. Thats insane!
@@Sausage_God Sounds true to me. It's possible within the visible light spectrum but with extreme intensity.
@@BuddyLee23 Just don't forget to bring sunglasses.
It will 100% happen again, now if we're here or not is the question.
3:33 serious punch
lol
this is beautifully done and well researched, I applaud you. If I could make one little suggestion; if you redo this one, add a Venus or Theia size impact to show the effects of the Earth either completely shattering to bits or blowing off material to create another Moon.

This channel is truly amazing, the animations, the time you put into this is strictly amazing. Thank you continue what you are doing
This is truly a masterpiece of CGI, not enough simulations online go into such detail with small more frequent and more likely impacts like you show here and you still showed the massive ones to awesome work dude. I also think that a field of asteroids like many many small to medium sized ones mostly small ones impact earth more frequently and more often then the massive largest ones. I think that lots of small ones covering the earth could easily do more damage to civilization then people might think. Gravitational forces could pull pieces off of a large weakened structure and pull the small bits to earth that lack the momentum of the large piece to avoid the planets gravity.
Love this one. The extra work on the modeling and animation really shines through. Your best work yet hands down.
I agree

Definitely see all the hard work you put into making this, absolutely brilliant but terrifying at the same time.
Well done Sir 🏆
7:20 Nice I will buy Ceres, looks fun
bruh
Your work is incredible, the music, graphics and cinematography is stunning.
Felt like I was watching a movie. The animation, the vibration and the MUSIC 🔥

Love the work! Big fan!!! The chixalub impactor was so devastating it’s hard comprehend. I would love to see your interpretation of not just the initial impact event, but the effects of the millions of tons of ejecta that re-entered the atmosphere, and literally boiled our planet! :)
How about Ceres?
Ceres it’s so big it’s covers the whole earth with fire
@@ilmanlynn Ceres is the biggest asteroid in our solar system, It's an unlikely hypothetical that would crack our crust like an egg, ignite the atmosphere and would require speculation and simulated physics to get an answer on how the planet deforms. Meanwhile the chixalub impact did happen, recently in the history of earth and came pretty close to ending complex life. Theres alot more data and its alot more interesting.
That's my favorite jump ever "ah man that one took out all of new York city and surrounding areas" then the next one literally just deletes France
I don't think Ceres is wondering asteroid but stays safely in asteroid belt between the inner planets and the outer ones.
I still think your TIME video is the most terrifying, but this one is now a close second.
Fantastic job as always, MBS! 👍💯
Yeah time was most epic you is right there
What is the video called for the time one ?
These only show the primary effects of the collision though. The Chicxulub event (a 20km asteroid) set most of North and South America on fire, and devastated the entire planet's climate for centuries afterwards. It wasn't just a single big bang and "too bad if you were directly under it". Past a certain size of explosion, there's nowhere safe left on the entire planet. As it was, it was basically miraculous that the Tunguska meteoroid hit a vast, mostly uninhabited area.
These videos are always so captivating! That choir at the end…just chilling. Thanks for the hard work on these!
🤦♂️ That wasn't a choir, it was a Tenor voice.
What a fantastic video. The research into it was great despite there being a few errors. Namely the Ceres impact time. Probably one of my favourite impact simulations.
Props to the workers who rebuilt the entire city only for it to be destroyed again
5:14 The impact is so good. I like this video!
Just a thought to keep in mind for the next one, maybe include an estimated average death & injury toll? There are a lot of writers out there trying to figure out what the catastrophic effects would be, but craters alone kind of diminishes the (pun intended) impact of these kinds of disasters without a death toll estimate. (Obviously I'm talking the first & smallest sets of asteroids, not Paris or later.)
the quality of the video is amazing, you should do a supernova comparison video.
Chicxulub Event = Dinosaur Extinction. 3:54
The music for the 100km asteroid striking Rome is so freaking good. Though it's weird having such a miraculous-sounding soundtrack to accompany the deaths of at least a few billion people, and probably the entire human population of the earth, and likely all life on earth.
I love how the last one has religious chants/music because it would be literally the end of the world
4:32 THEY DESTROTES SWITZERLAND THAT IMPOSSIBLE I'm calling the police
Very impressive mate. But i thought the 20km one was already big enough to turn Earth into a molten ball, so i was surprised, that it didn't
That’s the same size as the one that the dinosaurs indured
@@T0B3573R Not that big. Slightly bigger than Everest
the fireball would not be enough to reach the entire planet, but it would still wipe out 90% of life as we know it.. maybe not all of them die immediately after the impact, but through all the dirt that got into the earth's atmosphere, humanity would die out on the surface and only those hidden far below the earth survive.. for us humans there would be nothing left to eat on earth and entire crops would die off.. the rain turns to sulfuric acid which wipes out life
@@hodic1562 you call that slightly? You mean 2.5 times larger than mt everest
@@ilikefishilikefishilikefis6383 It was around 10km across, so.... not much bigger
6:04 Here is when the end begins. That song in Latin.
Wow! You really outdid yourselves on this one! This is the most technically complex comparison video I’ve seen from you yet! Like button hit….
6:47 its just a prank bro
The prank:
“TODAY I JUST CRASHED CERES FOR THE SAKE OF THE VIDEO!!!”
The last one is awesome because I'm pretty sure that's how our Moon was created. At least something that size or bigger a few billion years ago.
Also, thanks for making the "smaller" asteroids hit the USA like in the movies and the big ass ones hit somewhere else.
this theory was only created to accomadate with the analysis of the apollo rock samples.which basically said it was equivalent tobthe rocks on earth. all of that was then thought out to match those incredible results.
it is only as valid as is the original assumption.
