If you thought you had already seen it all with the apocalyptic events that are happening today such as the war between Israel and Palestine, the melting of the poles and until the annular solar eclipse which just happened a few days ago, well we tell you that you are very wrong, since it has now been reported that a kite called Devilto have three hornscould be shocked against the earth, what is really worrying about this information is that this object is three times larger than the Mount Everestthe largest mountain on the planet, due to this situation the scientists of the POT They are already studying the event to find out if it could really affect the world or if it would only happen nearby.
This star was named as Devil recently, as it became an object of attention and importance after it exploded on October 5, throwing parts of it everywhere, one of them being the one that could impact to the Land like in the movie”Armageddon“Even some religious people have called this the call of the Final judgmentsince the comet is larger than some cities.
What is the size of Comet Diablo?
This cryovolcanic cometthat is, it is a cold volcanohave a gigantic diameter which is around 18.6 miles, which in kilometers would be almost 30, what would give us a comparison is knowing that the Mount Everest measures 5.5 miles, equivalent to 8.8 kilometers, so if it were to hit the Land The result would be apocalyptic.
The scientific name it received is 12P/Poms-Brooks, it is already studied by the British Astronomical Associationwhich noticed the moment of the explosion when it realized that its brightness was dozens of times greater than any other, this due to the gas cloud that surrounds its center and leaves a trail in its wake. This would be due to the gas and ice eruptions that it accumulates, which would be similar to burning a soda can. frozen.
“The two ‘horns’ may be caused by a peculiarly shaped cryovolcanic vent with some type of blockage that causes material to be ejected in a strange flow pattern,” said Richard Miles of the association.
When will Comet Diablo pass near Earth?
According to experts, it is expected that the devil comet can be seen from the Land next April 2024, if its course does not change enough to impact the planetso the followers and fans of the astronomy they could take out their telescopes to see up close a gigantic star, larger than any other that has been seen so close in space in recent years.
He James Webb telescope of the POT closely follows this star from space, which has also presented information to NASA experts, who could be preparing for a possible impact and looking for a solution so that this does not happen, and if everything goes well, the comet will only circle the Land and will return to the solar system by the year 2095.
