“Why did the earth suddenly teleport ten times closer to the moon.” Then probably something like: “how can an object have sufficient kinetic energy to perfectly perforate the earth but still keep it mostly in tact” also “why is the asteroid burning if it is outside of the atmosphere”. Unless Hans Zimmer was playing in the background, then I would probably say “Dear god!”.
You don't think the billions of tons of rock are going to spread out? :p
Seriously though, we see shockwaves from exploding stars affecting the material around them. I don't know the mechanics of what is causing it or how it spreads, but it does.
Interestingly, probably not! When the moon formed it was MUCH closer to earth. The moon is ever so slowly moving away from the planet, bit by bit. So a fresh debris field from a sufficiently similar impact wouldn't reach as far as the moon is today
One blockbuster that only got to keep the name because of how the franchise setup worked. The corporate entity that was, for all intents and purposes, the actual blockbuster brand is long gone

I would have assumed the asteroid is large enough to have some sort of gravity and take a portion of the earth's atmosphere with it after it exits?

Asphyxiation is 10-15 seconds in the vacuum of space. The others are significantly longer.
Just saying.
nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 2y
Hypothermia is supposed to be nice once you get past the shivering. You feel warm (even kinda hot), the fall asleep and don’t wake up.
Asphyxia would be so quick though, but I’m not sure how blood boiling in zero atmosphere would feel.

GBU_28@lemm.ee · 8 pts · 2y
I think they would maintain their orbital path or be moved in the direction of the impact (obviously a mix)
But that's a debris field, not a shock wave
Everythingispenguins@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
Well the moon was formed by an impact of similar proportions so the debris field is making it to the moon.
neatchee@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
Interestingly, probably not! When the moon formed it was MUCH closer to earth. The moon is ever so slowly moving away from the planet, bit by bit. So a fresh debris field from a sufficiently similar impact wouldn't reach as far as the moon is today
