Life on Earth in 2017 will destroy an asteroid rain - VIDEO

Astronomers from the US are sounding the alarm - in the near future, Earth is under attack a huge number of asteroids that are already moving toward her.
Experts believe that the planet is waiting for a disaster, in which power many times exceed the tragedy caused by the disappearance of dinosaurs from the face of the Earth. Only this time will not be able to survive absolutely anyone.
According to the calculations of researchers, "an asteroid rain" will cover the earth in the period from 2017 to 2113 years. Explosions from the fall of celestial bodies will destroy all life on thoUSAnds of kilometers around. The only chance for salvation - is the development of new ways to protect against outside threats.

It is worth noting that in Roskosmos reported a new threat to Earth asteroid, which is bigger than Apophis, some time was considered a prime candidate for it to collide with the Earth. In early 2013 NASA reported that Apophis will fly past, but the world faces a new danger, according to the Russian space agency.

Asteroid Juno will be visible in the night sky with binoculars - VIDEO

This week, the third asteroid discoveries of mankind will be in a favorable position to observe from Earth. This asteroid is named after Juno, was opened in 1804 by the German astronomer Carl Harding.

Juno is a small by astronomical standards, a celestial body with a diameter of about 274 kilometers, but the usual earthly man in the street scale this size is quite significant and is approximately equal to the distance from New York to Boston.

The asteroid is far enough away from the Earth, to be precise, at the distance of 200 million kilometers. Juno brightness in the night sky estimated value of the visible magnitude 7.8. The scale of apparent magnitudes used by astronomers to assess the brightness of the space object in the night sky. The value of apparent magnitude of 7.8 means that the object can not see with the naked eye, therefore, required to observe it through binoculars.

Fortunately, next to the asteroid Juno in the night sky is more bright objects to accurately determine its position. The asteroid is currently in the middle of the segment connecting the sky bright Jupiter, which is in the constellation Leo, with no less bright star Procyon, in the constellation Canis Minor. Very close to Juno is also the head of the constellation Hydra.

It should be noted that the asteroid Juno moves with enough high speed, and watching him through a telescope for a few minutes, you will notice its movement against the background of fixed stars.

As the night sky would look if all the asteroids were visible - VIDEO
If you think that the asteroids - a rare phenomenon, the video astronomer Scott Manley will change your opinion. We do not see all the near-Earth asteroid discovered by astronomers, because they are small and dark, but if we could observe them, their number in the sky could be hit.

The creator of the animated video Scott Manley noted that our planet revolves around the Sun, constantly passing through this "swarm." asteroids in the panorama specially made visible to show the number and motion across the sky.

Manley stressed that this is only the known asteroids, which, according to some estimates, only 1% of the total number of near-Earth asteroids. B612 Foundation plans in 2017-2018 to launch into orbit between the Sun and Earth telescope Sentinel, which will have to compile a catalog of near-Earth asteroids in this area.
