what happens if a big asteroid hits the middle east or Iran & n.korea ?

Answer 1

when it happens, there would have a large shock all over the world, especially asia, then, small rocks will bombard the earth from the asteroid that, before bombarded to, all of the land near the explosion and bombardment will be destroyed, and this phenomenon will be more explosive and dangerous than 100 billion dynamite stick or an explosion in 100 million nuclear plants

Answer 2

Back up. Why was this question asked?

Why not a volcano in Washington State that blows its top and spreads ash all over the place? The reason why is that we want rare and spectacular events to happen. So if we talk about an asteroid strike, we want it to hit some place interesting such as lower Manhattan or Iran's nuclear complex or the Super Bowl. There is nothing interesting about it hitting the ocean 1000 miles WSW of Easter Island or hitting the middle of the Australian outback. Most events in this world are dull, and so we look for interesting events, such as the Mumbai attacks, and ignore dull ones such as a dollar increase in the barrel of oil.

That's why we are interested in combinations of interesting events, and it also explains why everybody keeps calling things "perfect storms" when there are plenty of imperfections about them.

Maybe we should ask what will probably happen and prepare for that.

Answer 3

We don't want to know.

Some have theorized that a large impact would make a shock wave big enough to knock things down on the opposite side of the earth. Not good.

Some say that the Gulf of Mexico was formed by such an occurance.

Some say Dinosaurs left this planet due to such an occurance.

Again, we don't want to know.

ON THE OTHER HAND NOTHING SAYS THAT A SMALL ONE COULDN'T HIT MY MOTHER IN LAW.

Answer 4

we would die a slow and painful death.


yeah, why Iran and North Korea. Oh damn, countries with nuclear power. well well

If it hits land, tons and tons of material will enter the atmophere and block out the sun. No sun, no food cause the plant life will go, then the animals that eat plants and then us.

so Thats the reason, I would prefer to be where the impact is. I dont want to die of starvation.

Answer 5

Yep. If the thing was big enough, the Middle East and Koreans would be the lucky ones who died quickly. The rest of us would die more slowly.

So, if the big one heads for Earth, you should hope you are at ground zero.

Answer 6

Why question that for Iran or North Korea? Why not ask that about the US or Canada or France or Germany?

Answer 7

Well.. they would be instantly destroyed, as well as half the planet... the blast would kill every living thing in a matter of seconds, and anyone who survived (which is very unlikely) would die because the dust cloud would block out the sun... and no one can live without the sun.

You're talking about the planet -and everyone and everything on it- being totally obliterated...the end of the human race and earth as we know it... duh.

Answer 8

a dust cloud would cover the earth for 200 years, effectively killing every man, woman, child, plant, animal, and bacteria on the planet

Answer 9

It's called "asteroid hits and kills them, then world goes into nuclear winter and kills us." Happy now?

Answer 10

Whatever hapeens when it hits your town Samething will happen
