Is this possible?

TeddyTedson

Is it possible someday that a something could smash the planet into bits of dust and obliterate absolutely everything?
Also, is it possible we could achieve this with weapons currently on the planet right now. Is there a way I could potentially blow up the planet from the inside?
I'm just wondering if I can do this in theory, or when will it be possible.

First the dog, now the planet?

Oh Teddy Teddy Teddy

Ihatecuddles

You recently said in another thread that you aren't afraid of death, and I live pretty close to you.

Please don't blow us up!

absolutely - good size atom bomb would do the job

Stavros Murphy

Considering your driving history Ted, there's a fair chance you could hit it while reversing and utterly destroy the gaff. Other than that, doubtful. It's fairly big.

Liamalone

Totally possible if Thor's wee brother gets his act together.

Ruu

You should visit the Sunshine and Lollipops forum more often.

catallus

Yes it's possible that an extra-terrestrial object could smash the world to pieces.

No it couldn't be done with any current weapons.

The question, Teddyifthatisyourrealname, is why would you want to blow it up? Do you have bags under your eyes?

I'm working on something similar now actually. PM me and we can exchange ideas

Yes it is, no it won't and no you can't (unless you'r not telling us somethign abotu yourself!) in that order!

After reading teddys threads, I certainly hope it's already possible.

LOL.
This made me smile. I don't want to blow up the planet, quite the opposite.

Anything is possible on your planet, Teddy!

No current tech could destroy the earth we can however make it uninhabitable for humans

Teddy you should have posted your question in here: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057189369
It would have just got lost in the mix.

well if you understand that an infinate amount of slugs with an infinate amount of type writers and an infinate amount of time can type the text of the bible word for word, then yes. it is possible.

1. dig a massive hole

2. throw a load of mentos down said hole

3. empty a large bottle of coke down the hole

4. run

TeddyTedson

So there is an active way I could potentially put a bomb into the earths core and smash the planet into particles of dust
Or a flying rock could randomly do this too, not like 65million years ago, but could actually obliterate everything....

I really don't think the human race will be around for much longer anyway. You're destroying the planet on a daily basis
What will you all do when it's too late.

What sort of mind thinks up stuff like this?

Why would you want to? Why think like this?

Last thing I would be thinking of.

im sorry about the cigarette but i flicked onto the railway line earlier:(

ardle1

They can blow up half a mountain with sticks off dynamite when they're mining, so I'd say yes it is possible, but only if there's profit in it, but considering they would be blowing up 'the Earth' hence everybody dies, hence no profit, hence not possible, hence blah blah blah blah ��������

Yeah, the sun is working on it. It will take another 6-7 billion years though.

I'm worried it will happen. I've been worrying about the faith of the planet since I was a kid.
At about the age of 7 I was up all night unable to sleep because I read that the sun is going to explode eventually and eat up the planet.

That and nuclear power disasters.

Ted. Get involved with some young wan, have a baby.

Then you'll know about a catastrophic event!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, the answer might interest you.

The Tzar Bomba, the biggest nuclear weapon ever detonated, has a blast yield of 50-58 megatons (I'm going by Wikipedia for all of this). That's about 1,400 times bigger than Little boy and Fat man put together. A good number of those bombs could destroy humanity, but physically destroying the planet is another story. It's almost a 6 sextillion tonne lump of minerals (5,973,600,000,000,000,000,000).

The surface area destroyed by the Nagasaki and Hiroshima bombs was about 58 km². I'm no expert, but let's multiply that by 1,400 and presumably we get the surface area destroyed by the Tzar Bomba. That's 81,200 km². The surface area of the Earth is 510,072,000 km². That means it would take over 6,000 Tzar Bombas just to blast the surface.

The Earth's radius is 6,378km. The Tzar Bomba blast was huge - the flash of light is reported to have been 1,000km away. The explosion's atmospheric shockwave traveled around the Earth three times before it dissipated. In planetary terms, the crater wasn't even a pimple. I'm not a scientist, I haven't even considered gravity or the Earth's atmosphere, but it would take at least several hundred thousand Tzar Bombas to do significant damage to the Earth's planetary structure.

A meteor 17549miles in circumference would do exactly as you said. No one would survive, not even very religious people.

fussyonion

I'm sure it's possible a meteor or some other big rock thingy could smash the planet into bits.
I wouldn't care because you'd all be coming with me.

Have you taken the headphones off any lassies recently Teddy?

The faith of the planet? Teddy, you can rest assured that the faith of the planet is strong. It can't be damaged by nuclear bombs!

You silly sausage.

I wouldn't worry about that, instead worry about these things:

Climate Change (results include crop failures, famine, starvation, death on a grand scale)
Over Population
World War III (Should Russia continue to be naughty, during this we could expect some fun forms of weaponry including, but not limited to, biological and nuclear.)
The rise of antibiotic resistant bacteria
Virus pandemic (see H1N1)
Scientific Accident (See Grey Goo, micro black hole, rise of the AI overlords)

Your reference to 'humans' for one, then your use of "I am not" rather than "I'm not".

Are you obviously not artificial intelligence. Perhaps an advanced spambot? Or foreign?

It is possible to kill all life on earth (chem weapon, f*ckload of atom bombs) but to blow the actual planet to smithereens I'm not so sure. If Earth drifted into a black hole then it would probably be ripped apart.

Capt'n Midnight

Could it happen ?

It already did http://www.space.com/18106-moon-formation-earth-giant-impact.html

kiffer

It is over 6,000 km to the center of the planet, the deepest we have ever drilled is about 12 km.
At depth the pressure and temperates are very high it would be very hard to get anything to go deeper and function as a machine.
I read about a hypothetical plan to send probes deeper by wrapping them in heat resistant ceramic and then dumping them along with a million tonnes of molten iron down as deep a shaft as we could find/make.
Rock melts at around 1000°c and iron is molten at about 3000...
molten iron is also denser than molten rock so the iron would melt its way to the core... at least until it cooled enough to solidify...
the pressures would br insane.
Let's say you got the tzar bomb down to 100km deep... it would be like a childs banger in the bottom of a lake...

TeddyTedson

We will never be able to stop the sun though
