Watch live : Comet P/2016 BA14 Panstarrs: a historic close encounter

For those interested

Next 22 March 2016, comet P/2016 BA14 Panstarss will make a truly historic close encounter with our planet, reaching a minimum distance from us of about 3,6 millions of km. While this distance is absolutely safe, it will make P/2016 BA14 the third closest comet ever in history. At Virtual Telescope we will show this comet live, online, so that everyone can have a look at this record event from the comfort of home.
Two online, free sessions are scheduled for 21 and 22 Mar. 2016, starting at 21:00 UT.

What can I say, I'ma doom porner.
It would be dishonest to me to say I do not want to.
Yea, I'm aware of the consequences, but nature, especially space, are very violent places.
Hey, we already loose ability to respect nature.

I just find out that I'm scared and excited in the same time , but, yeah, I want one to hit.

Wow.

Can't say I want that to happen, so one of us is going to be happy, whilst the other not so.

I don't blame you, life is boring and if i'm going to die i take everyone else with me muhahaha
No really i know a lot of people want such catastrophes to happen i do wonder why? Television? To much 'bad-ending-hollywood-doom-we-want-a-sequel movies' ? or they know something secret about death?

a reply to: intergalactic fire no secret about death,you die and thats it,lights out,no pearly gates like everyone would like you to believe.

life aint boring either but life will end for us all and all i,m saying is that when earth is wiped out then i wouldn,t mind being around to watch, more exciting than going out on a wimper.

depends from which perspective you are looking, life certainly had it's bored to death part.

You love to be around to watch eh...

a reply to: intergalactic fire why not? go out lying in a bed just cause time told me live was up or lie back and watch the fireworks and go with a bang? i,d go with the bang even if it was tomorrow.

No. You really really don't . Look at what happened to Jupiter when it got hit. It was far bigger than they had predicted.

The bigger the hit, the bigger the fun.
