The amount of energy it would take to punch a hole through the Earth would probably be enough to kill you from the moon.
Like just in terms of “bullets” ejected?
probably radiation:
that kind of impact is gonna tear apart a lot of atoms and the energies involved would create high temperature plasma; basically a very big fusion bomb…
“somebody is fucking with me”
The Earth is way too close, and I don’t think a meteor strike on the earth, no matter how energetic, would look like a bullet going through an apple.
Maybe a piece of very dense matter (neutronium ?), at very high speed (relativistic) could do that ?
I think any matter going fast enough would do that. In the fast going thing’s perspective the earth would basically be just a thin membrane.
That triangular dust cloud doesn’t look right.
Yeah, all parts of this image are in an uncanny valley where you can understand how someone thought the image would read a certain way, but then also it doesn’t actually read that way to me at all
The massive mushroom cloud does?
Likely whoever made it didn’t know how this scene would look like.
Try to contact the ship that escaped. The one that was being built in silence under false pretenses by people who knew the planet was screwed, but convinced themselves it was better not to cause riots by informing everyone.
Small chance, but the billionaire investors might want to pick me up as a novelty story, or to make themselves feel like heroes
“This is the SCP foundation, to all survivors give us five minutes.”
Radio static for four and a half minutes
“Okay we are about to do a temporal shift to six minutes ago in a localized portion of space time, 05 council and the Foundation wish you luck.”
Eh, both permanent space habitation as well as generation ships are so comically far out of our reach that any effort to escape would be doomed. All the billionaires would have accomplished is that they’d die slower. Unless we had decades of advanced warning and even then it would be a stretch. Additionally, in the latter case there’s no need to keep it secret. The world is going to end in 50 years just wouldn’t cause as much panic.
Secondly, if you look at the picture, the projectile directly pierces the earth. So it would have to be going extremely fast to accomplish this. So chances are we wouldn’t see it coming to begin with.
Thirdly, this sort of direct hit implies intelligence. So, chances are whatever wants us dead would then follow through to ensure they get any survivors. Or not, as I pointed out earlier, all survivors are screwed either way.
*the general and president walk down the underground corridor
Sir, it’s time to reveal to you where all the real NASA money has been going for the past 60 years.
Wait is that-
Yes, alien tech recovered from Roswell.
silently take delight in knowing all my enemies are dead
I mean you’ve got to look for positives, right?
Do people have enemies? That seems exhausting.
Arch nemesis… only Arch users have those.
I’ll tip my Fedora to that.
But I use blendOS? What does that mean?
You’re your own worst enemy 🤷…
Thats the curse i guess of being the real chimera of os’s.
“don’t panic”
Not that anybody’s alive to actually do that…
From the looks of it the astronaut was just out of the lunar grocery store starting to walk home for some dinner and down time.
I think this is one situation where I’d be genuinely speechless.
Finally!
“Tja…”
Oh…
…
…
…fuck.
Welp…
Houston, we have a problem
One small uh-oh for a man, one giant extinction event for mankind.
