Jan. 29th Asteroid?

We are two days away from this 400m asteroid coming within the same distance between the earth and the moon....buckle in, this could get REAL interesting.....







Notes: LD means "Lunar Distance." 1 LD = 384,401 km, the distance between Earth and the Moon. 1 LD also equals 0.00256 AU. MAG is the visual magnitude of the asteroid on the date of closest approach.

What is TU24?
TU24 is an asteroid headed our way on January 29, 2008 . It's the largest potentially hazardous asteroid for the next 19 years.

Although the chances of a direct impact are nearly non-existent, there is a much greater chance that there will be a degree of electromagnetic interference as TU24 traverses Earth's magnetosphere in the manner of Tunguska 100 years ago. Here's what scientists think of plasma discharge (or "magnetic reconnection"). You can also download the NASA video.

There could possibly be an even higher chance of electromagnetic interference occuring on Mars on Jan. 30 as asteroid WD5 approaches it, making for some interesting celestial effects

Well, as the asteroid passes thru our magnetic field, from what I understand, if the asteroid carries a negative charge, it can severely disrupt things on earth. Things to look for over the next few days would be earthquakes in odd places (happened today) volcanic eruptions (happening at several locations) cell service disrupted, (happened to me and my ex today, his phone started freaking out, wouldn't stop ringing, he had to take the battery out and then it was automatically dialing me, my daughter fully charged cell went dead for no apparent reason) power outages (my kids' school lost power today for several hours, the kids tell me, the teachers were acting very strange and edgy about it, yelling at the students to "stay on task" and, "stop freaking out" ~ which they weren't but the teachers were) strange weather patterns, (um, we had stupid crazy winds here today and it SNOWED in Bahgdad for the first time in one hundred years) strange animal behavior (two steer incidents in two days, of steers escaping....people all over reporting their animals are acting odd) and last but not least, internet posters creating the longest run-on sentences in the history of the www. (hmmmm.)

Here the real time magnetosphere display....very cool link regardless of asteroids....

And the right side of my body, particularly my right leg is feeling a weird, and sometimes painful jolt. (I have been severely disabled for 23 years, so I know every tiny little "weirdness" throughout my body---steel plates in my knees, wrists, 2 inches missing from left leg and inch and a half from right arm/wrist)----still, this feeling is brand new, and it IS ELECTRIC/MAGNETIC tingle going up and down the back of my leg---not the same nerve channel as the sciatic nerve. Does someone here know enough about nerves that might explain the pain along the back instead of the usual along the side sciatic? Much obliged.

Wild Dove,

I found this in one of my anatomy books, I'm not sure if this is what it is. Common Peroneal Nerve. " Branching off from the sciatic nerve, the peroneal nerve courses superficially along the posterior/lateral side of the knee. Roughly the diameter of a thick piece of spaghetti, it lies medial to the biceps femoris tendon and lateral to the gastrocnemius belly. It becomes particularly accesible (and vulnerable) along the posteror surface of the head of the fibula.

You might need to break out your dictionary to decipher some of the words. he he hope this helps some

Thanks MID. It does help. I notice now the pain is most acute underneath the knee where tendons attach to fibula! Much obliged! I will rub the back of my fibula....still, it was really electric-like (the pain, that is), not like a pinched nerve. Maybe its both! I was riding too high on that asteroid. Should have sat on the saddle instead of whip my reigns trying to have stand/ half sit with the stirrups doing the balancing act. Gotta stay in the saddle on such erratic rides.....

Wild Dove I am sorry for your pain. I will storm heaven with prayers for your recovery. I have had the electric shock you are talking about, although it was in my back. (I broke it in three places when I was twelve). It is very painful. I still am not sure what caused that pain. I have not had it in years - thanks to prayers and the blessing of the Spirit.

My brother had steel plates in both knees, metal rods in his feet and he would sometimes get a magnetic electric feeling also.

Oh! I just thought of something! The asteroid is composed of dense nickel and iron, and I read where it created an electromagnetic charge as it passed through. It could be having an effect on the metal plates in your knees - causing the electric shock/magnetic feeling.

But I have to tell you I laughed out loud at your balancing act on that asteroid. That is tricky business you know! Yes I agree you need to sit very tight in the saddle next trip. NO MORE STANDING UP!

Hello everyone;

I want to also add this link that I have been reading... which will effect weather... Well, Ontario and Quebec are bracing for a severe winter storm which has started right now, the Atlantic provinces of Canada are without power from a severe Freezing rain ice storm. And the Western Provinces of Canada are in a frigid cold...
