Z10 Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 Hi,is there a technique to slow down an asteroid with the help of other asteriodes or the gravity of jupiter?an asteriode with a speed of 10km / h to the pole would it be a risk for the earth?

No, not so much. 1 hour ago, Z10 said: an asteriode with a speed of 10km / h to the pole would it be a risk for the earth? An asteroid hitting the earth will likely have a higher speed than this, seeing as the escape velocity is ~11 km/s. What matters is the mass.
Z10 Posted March 5, 2019 Author Posted March 5, 2019 look here even with a speed of 10km / s the object is stopped. https://youtu.be/4ZFAkBMtcPo if the asteroid is stopped and send to the pole at 10km / h the misfortune of dinosaur would be our happiness.
swansont Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 The mass that matters, as I said. A milligram vs a kilogram is a factor of a million in KE for the same speed.
