Armageddon (the movie) & RIA projects

This scene is like RIA project's kick-off.
Everything has been studied but you get always the coyote - road runner joke!
People ask the unimaginable to get assured and test the leadership.
Game Over if targets not acquired. Simply put! :p

[@iprobablyforgotsomething]

Billy Bob's face @ 0:52 is like 'please just let me get through the presentation for this admittedly insane plan because it's the only one we've got no matter how many snarky remarks you add in'. . But he manages to smile and remain polite and even give an actual, if brief, answer. Dude's a master-level customer service rep, which is not a quality you'd expect to find in a gov worker on any given day. Let alone one where he's gotta be completely stressed and sleep-deprived.

Yea I remember this one, is when the coyote straps himself down to acme rocket. Harry= ROCKHOUND. 😂😂😂😂

[@herrmajor2310]

Should have thrown just one more line in there, the whole point of making a slingshot around the Moon is because that rock is moving so fast. It's to match and even exceed it's speed and then jump on it's back. Had they included that line it would have raised the stakes, it's not like you can just fly to it head on. And it would have better set up the excessive tail debris.

the scariest environment imaginable

[@KarlSturmgewher]

They have to time the detonation just right. If the bomb goes off AFTER zero barrier, it's all over.

[@andrewwise4877]

So basically, if this asteroid hadn't been in a trajectory that took it past the moon we'd all be screwed. That's pretty lucky.

[@Entropy__]

Uh...to get to Earth you need to go past the moon, assuming it takes you 1 day.

[@andrewwise4877]

@@Entropy__ In the film the asteroid is seen going right past the moon. They make a point that the moon's gravity should pull in smaller fragments of the tail. The moon doesn't occupy all points around Earth, it has a set orbit. So if the Asteroid hadn't aligned with that orbit and if it hadn't approached at the right time of the month where it could go past the moon, then the astronauts would not have been able to use the moon to speed up and reach matched velocity for landing. Thereby, Earth would have been destroyed.

[@baishihua]

@@Entropy__ it wouldn't if the moon is on the other side of Earth.

[@xaviermoncada-martin8156]

Or, they would’ve had to have come up with another way to land on the astroid.

"Liquid O2, that's your fuel." Actually, liquid O2 (lox) is the OXIDIZER, not the fuel. Fuel would be kerosene, LH2, etc.

yo if they meet up with the space station in leo then they have to be going somewhere in the range of 17kmph . a 60 hr trip to the moon is only ~4.000 mph. earth escape velocity is 25,020 mph. they dont do basic maths for a movie

[@LtScarecrow87]

According to multiverse theory, there should be an earth where not only did Bruce Willis blow up a planet killing space rock, but he fucking failed to blow up said space dock

[@jtgd]

So they say the asteroid comes in 2 weeks. They spend about a week gathering and training everyone, then several days traveling in space. And ride it 2 hours away from impact. Like they pretty much went off the station And travelled almost 3 days just to get to the moon

[@thomasmartin5503]

@StrnFn9099 that's a big jump to make but ok.

[@CathrineMacNiel]

@StrnFn9099 why would this prohibit us from going to mars? You only ever experience Gs when accelerating, not while flying at a steady speed.

[@CathrineMacNiel]

@StrnFn9099 it would take 150-300 days from earth to mars. The Cosmonaut Valery Polyakov currently holds the longest stay on the ISS for 437 days. So it is quite imaginable.

[@CathrineMacNiel]

@StrnFn9099 what makes you so sure that they would die?

[@CathrineMacNiel]

@StrnFn9099 the first humans to Mars won't return to earth. They will stay there and establish the first colony after it was prebuilt by robots. So it will still be 300 days to mars, with a ship that will have enough commodities to keep the colonist in shape (exercise). Also, they will have a commlink with only 4-24 minutes so it will be like mail. And last of all, don't ignore human ingenuity.

[@BritanniaPacific]

Yeah the coyote did sit his ass down in a slingshot, then strap himself to an acme rocket, just not at the same time.

[@NotShowingOff]

It’s funny how they say “tail debris cleared by the moon’s gravity”. Then wouldn’t the asteroid simply crash into the moon.

[@CathrineMacNiel]

the smaller debris would be more affected by the moon than the big ass rock, which could even pull a bit on the moon itself.

[@Soliy87]

11gs would kill any human in seconds let alone for 10+ mins

[@johnnysunday402]

If trained & conditioned you would have 2-3 seconds of useful awareness before you passed out under a 'slow' & measured acceleration to 11, or a very short & graduated spike. Most people would pass out around 4-6g, but fighter pilots can potentially pull way up the scale and handle gradual g force spikes in the red (9+) Instant impact force (Instant Accel or Decel) of 11g would MOST likely tear the heart, shatter the bones, bludgeon the organs, and kill. In theory long period exposure to 'upper' G forces would actually restrict blood flow, causing serious damage leading to death due to oxygen deprivation to the brain & organs. There was a race car driver survived an instant decelleration of over 200gs. The greatest vertical g force ever withstood is something like 35 or 36. Stuka pilots in WW2 frequently peaked out well above 9, and the aircraft actually had a 'recovery' system for WHEN the pilot passed out due to the Gs.
