What would the world's richest do in this situation?

How'd Melancholia get the beans above the frank?

>here's a tech to save the planet
>no cant use it, it will be used to destroy us

Uhhh can you elaborate

Rape Kirsten Dunst

I still don't understand how Jack Bauer was suddenly shocked that this could happen, every two bit astronomy would have been able to map out melancholias path months in advance, orbits are easy to work out, you can even map out what orbits will look like thousands of years in the future

space warfare is forbidden

The astrophysics of the movie was never intended to be accurate.

>never intended to be accurate.

Even if wasn't forbidden melancholia a PLANET. Nothing we've got is moving a planet out of it's path.

same technology that deflects a body out of earth path could be used to deflect a body into earth path. a cheap way for an enemy nation to completly destroy america using just one nuclear head.
it was called "Ivan's Hammer" in the 80's

>a planet bigger then earth some how manages to do a full orbit around earth and then loops back to crash into in instead of flying straight past it and perturbing it's orbit so that everything's fucked regardless

Watch Salo for an answer

What are his best movies, Yea Forums? Already watched The House That Jack Built and Melancholia. Downloading Antichrist now.

you could make it in matlab, only IF you had accurate enough data. but that data is highly classified, no aficionado have access to that shit

Dogville and Dancer in the Dark are great as well.
Breaking the Waves too allegedly but I haven't seen it yet.

The United States government has put some research into anti-meteorite technology. And it is thought that we will have enough warning time to put that technology into action.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asteroid_impact_avoidance

its not really practical unless the object is found 10+ years away from the earth. has to be found very far away otherwise there is no time to change its trajectory. any kind of attack using this method would be an affair that went on for several decades.
youd get more practical results by just nuking the place instead of risking extinction or a failure to move it and 50 years of money and resources down the drain

No thing as above in space.

What could they do? Nothing

why does the earth not move in this diagram?

Kirsten Dunst's tits

The rationale was that one small organization stealing a nuclear weapon can cause a limited damage, but sending a meteorite into earth, they could end humanity. There's an international agreement to not develop such technology in the foreseeable future
Also, that's the reason precise information on celestial bodies' locations is highly classified

Pleb.

Sell planet-deflecting umbrellas to stupid people.

even if they get notified today of an impact on 2119-04-20 there's just not enough time to realistically develop that shit
real life is not like hollywood sci fi

The same thing they always do, try to find a way to make money off of it and destroy the future for everyone including themselves.

user, in a hundred years we've gone from horse-drawn carriages to space travel. Another 100 years of the entire world working together to try and not die would absolutely give us space arks.

>user, in a hundred years we've gone from horse-drawn carriages to space travel
wrong

People in 1969 probably figured we'd be living on Mars by now.

Melancholia looks like a gas giant

there's a ceiling to human achievement without a breakthrough on cold nuclear fission or nano materials. one single century is fucking nothing to get that

Fund Melancholia denialism.

Asteroids aren’t exactly hidden m8.

Progress has stopped.
What have we achieved in 50 years other than faster handheld masturbation material machines?
Most infrastructure or militaries use cold war era stuff and sci-fi shit like solar panel roads and whatever are novelties and scams.

the singularity is on track to happen in 30 years at our current pace
forced acceleration would speed that up and catapult breakthroughs

they would have known of it way ahead of time and made ships to land on the other side of Melancholia and live on that planet.

> Duck, and cover.

quaks are talking about singularity since the 60's. AI advances by fits and starts: deep learning was a huge improvement, but it might get stucked again for a century, nobody really knows

We would if Hitler had won

Von Trier is a hack

imagine the smell

A gas giant passing close to earth would just knock the earth out of its solar orbit, potentially kicking it out of the solar system entirely. This movie made no scientific sense.

This!

No, he was correct.
Benz Patent Motor Car (1886) was the first, less than a century later the moon landing occurred.

Has to be built in orbit.

Pretty sure if the earth was confirmed going to be destroyed we would just say fuck currency and give literally unlimited budget to a joint effort to make relativistic kill vehicles

>but that data is highly classified

What? No it's not.

the space age was brute forced using existing technology from centuries ago. i guess you fund a small mars colony the same way, if you waste like 50% avaliable human resources, but that doesn't seem like a small investment

>I'm gonna type bullshit out my ass while being willfully ignorant

damm

Never saw the movie but how does humanity get surprised by a planet much bigger than earth? It’s not like it came out of nowhere

Just go to the gym bro lmao

They don't get surprised, they know its coming and have to deal with the fact that they can't do anything to stop it.

That's the plot of the movie.

It's a LVT movie. You're supposed to turn off your brain

The idea behind his character is to show the failure of science to give meaning to existence in the face of certain death.

holy shit, people think so highly of real human capacity

idk why but something tell me this is BS , how the fuck a planet multiples time the size of earth would be "catch" by earth gravity than get ejected and than get catch again by earth gravity and catch up earth that is moving at 67,000 miles per hour in the opposite direction ?

Killing safari on town streets

this is the end of my presidency, im fucked

Size and mass are two different things brainlet

What surprises me is how didn't the planet change Earth's orbit, and at the speed the planet was hurtling it wouldn't have been caught by Earth's gravity, maybe a smaller object would graze Earth's atmosphere like an asteroid and maybe get pulled in sEarth's gravity

what is this shit? Is it another planet x, nibiru,...?

NOOOOOO MY SHITCOINS AAAAAAAAAAAH
