Asteroid 2007 TU24 has NASA concerned.

My prediction......

The event will go largely unnoticed among the general public - astronomers will have a field day - and one small residence in Evesham will receive the wrath of a smallish chunk of TU24 that was travelling in the region of Mach 24!

I am really starting to wonder why it was removed and whats going on here ... seems no one wants it out there

Finding the original post in the Google Cache is hit or miss as the orignal version seems to be going missing from some of Google's servers (not unusual for content that is updated often, and the cache begins to contain the updated version)

Here's a capture of the original posting.

Though I'd post a screen grab of that - hope it is readable



Edit: try again

I have a question for you. Do you believe or think we will get hit? Or should we be stocking up on supplies?

As long as it impacts down the road - just think of the photo opportunities!

Thanks Bill for finding that.

This is big news. The economy crashing may have to do with this.

Here's an interesting bit of information. Check out this post in the TU24 forum. Someone made a very interesting discovery.

The distance decrease from 0.009 AU to 0.004 AU in a single day and then... Arecibo can't track TU24 anymore???

And Goldstones radar will be offline from Jan 25-Feb 15

Sure enough. I looked at NASA's site and they have this remark.

Goldstone DSS-14 will be offline for maintenance from Jan. 25-Feb. 15.

(Goldstone DSS-14)

That's a bit odd isn't it? Is that their way of saying "We're not sharing our findings?" or is it just that they've written off this thing. Arecibo can't track TU24 and Goldstone will be off-line. Very, very interesting. Isn't this NASA's best Earth-based equipment. Funny that both will be unable to track on the date in question.

If I were to lok for a better conspiracy angle........ it would be along the lines that the whole asteroid forum TU24.org (or whatever it's called), the Yahoo posting, and other web-BS we can find about it all, has all been thrown out there to encourage the sales of the (pop science) books on the electric universe idea.

I thought these posts on page 1 and page 2 essentially debunked the premise of that Yahoo posting?



IMO this is why Yahoo removed the post.

"Goldstone DSS-14"

What's the significance of this particular installation relative to the dozens of others around the world?

NASA are not the only people with eyes and ears who can look at the sky.





Besides haven't we already had objects pass within the distance of lunar orbit in the past without incident?

Show me some Continuity of Government measures being taken... information from other countries or observatories... troop movements... alert levels in governments or first responders being raised... something other than an anonymous internet posting by someone who claims "I know someone who works for NASA and he says..."

I KNOW we would never be told if the real thing was about to happen, but it's more likely that this is Aussie Bloke redux.

BTW claiming that the "markets" know about this but nobody else does is specious to say the least. There's plenty of other (valid) reasons for the market plunge.

Inaccurate information is apparently not a reason for removing a post from the Yahoo News Message boards.

I have an associate at Yahoo who's looking into this. While he thought the initial post was 100% "nut job," he agreed that there should have been no reason to remove it... which then peaked his interest quite a bit.

Now that's funny!!

I guess they also tolerate hoaxers over there.
Thank goodness for ATS.

again, we are not discussing impact into earth. That has been ruled out for the most part.

What we have been discussing is the plasma discharge effect of a negatively charged asteroid in concern with earth and it's magnetosphere.

Is it possible for the OP on yahoo boards to delete the thread?

Otherwise that is interesting.
Are things normally removed after a set period? Any other times in recent history (1year) this has happened that we know of?

Ummmm. Yes. Which is exactly the topic I am talking about too. Read the above again.

There are only two ways:

1. This asteroid will not hit, because it is not permitted to hit or affect us in any way.

2. The asteroid will hit because they want a change of awarness to occur on Earth plus it will trigger a paradigm shift.

What do you think is more possible?

I say the first. Nothing will happen, such a big change is like full disclosure, which is not permited, yet!

How is it encouraging sales if... less than 500,000 people in the world know about TU24. Let's be realistic. This thread has only been viewed 30,000 times, and most likely much less at TU24.org, and the same people most likely overlap at each site.

How is it encouraging sales? Cite a company?
What if we were trying to sell "the earth is round" books in 1600, are just "ruthless money makers" who spit out BS to the masses?

Not to mention... The only books I've ever bought in my life have been for school.

The only people I can see making money is the advertisers that run banners on ATS lol.

LOL .... and if it contains a large amount of radiation
you'll be toast .... and so will the camera.

Yeah thats it, go buy as many books as possible on the Electric Universe, that way you can understand your moment of death rather than be mystified.

Please, there is a vast amount of information regarding this topic on the internet, for free. Not to mention the great threads right here on ATS.

As for the topic at hand, I'm not really sure. I have a bad feeling, however my intuition isn't quite idicative of anything significant considering my lack of ovaries.
