Fight or Flight?

*The geek in me says:

There's a planet/star/asteroid heading towards our planet. It's 8 times larger than the size of Earth. Estimated time of impact- 3 years.

What are you going to do?

Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Or not.



Earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions, forest fires, heat waves, tsunamis, snow in the desert- all of these climate changes because a massive chunk of rock is heading for our galaxy and disrupting our gravitational pull. Its invasion of our space will cause a major shift.

The Ice Age happened in the span of an hour. Everything in the planet was frozen solid in about 60 minutes. Who's to say that can't happen again? A mammoth was found frozen in ice and its stomach contents weren't even digested yet.

What if Atlantis really did sink? What if Noah really did make an Ark because a flash flood was gonna kill everyone and everything in its path.
Why is there a seed depository in Antarctica? Saving all the different species of plants. The new "Noah's Ark" because when the shift happens it turns into the tropics?

Seen the movie trailer for 2012? What would the governments of the world do to save its people?

Nothing.

There won't be a warning because the whole world will panic. Imagine billions of people at your gate begging you to save their lives.

They'll save the people who can afford to pay for a spot on some space shuttle. They'll save all the politicians and their families. They'll probably throw in some scientists, doctors, teachers, athletes, and entertainers.

I'm gonna be sitting on a beach somewhere waiting for it to NOT happen.
My dad just told me Hawaii should be safe.
Just in case.
