Here you go !


Near earth Objects and Orbits


neo.jpl.nasa.gov...



There are many ways , and some you can even do right at home ! There consistent record of tracking them with such precision should assure you they know enough.


Just set up a telescope at home , take pics of the stars everynight for a year and you will see a basic form of tracking them . Now imagine nasa's toys and goodies

I believe the data is from the International Astronomical Union Minor Planet Center that operates at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO). The Minor Planet Center derives its operating budget from a three-year NASA grant.

Trajectory could be like everything else the government and nasa lye to us right.


The data doesn't come from NASA, links above, NASA provided a grant so the tracking of the Minor Planet Center could continue, and they offer more of their funds to create a database and put the data out for the world's astronomers to use and verify.


Images of yu55 comet/asteroid Possibly look like it's manmade? according to photos i seen.
An artist renders the image to look like the death star or a Borg Spere?


You were looking on the wrong site(s), Rense.com is a known conspiracist, not a scientist. They aren't photos, they are radio astronomy images created by bouncing microwaves off the object and timing the distance it takes to receive the signal that bounces back, the data is imaged into a 3D model.

ok 9-11 was a Goverments way to start the wars in the middle east? I don't care who did it but result was war.


I don't think the asteroid is going to start a war.

Ok Richard Hoagland (Sciencetist or nut) Proves and states the path of yu55 could be controlled artifisally and changes?


Science Fiction.

Only the gravity of a planet sized object can change the trajectory of an asteroid. 2005 YU55 only can possibly get close to enough to Venus, Earth, the moon, and Mars in it's orbit around the sun. A collision with another asteroid it's size or larger could change it's orbit but things out there are very far apart.

Also Size of yu55 does not match a standard comett?


First, it is an asteroid, they range in size from a pebble to about 500 miles in diameter, a comet has never been observed to be over 50 km in diameter ever.


Now What if the governments built this to blame (ufo's , Aliens whom ever) And it's headed for Earth on a destruction Path! Trajectoery SET for distruction of earth and its controlled by the earth goverments?


If a government built a 400 meter in diameter spacecraft it would be the most monumental achievement in mankind to date.
Again, science fiction.

The Plan to kill earth people to thin the herd?

Can anyone answer this? Prove or disprove i dont care, the only thing i want is truth and to live in a place like John Lennon sung about........


I never understood why killing off population would be benefit 'the powers to be' in any way. Where would the slave class be the rich rape for their wealth. Where would all of the people be that the rich steal money from then? The rich are rich through volume, thinning down the volume of their market is counterproductive, and cutting the hands that feed them. Thinning the herd makes no logical sense.

I understand what you are saying, yet we can deff find trajectory of our solar system but how can they find the exact trajectory of comets that come from like let's say 80light years away. I still think it's very strange.

80 ly away is outside of our solar community, maybe you mean 80 AU, the Kuiper Belt starts around the orbit of Neptune, from 30 AU out and can go as far as 50 AU out and further to the Oort cloud, about 1 ly distant. Outside of that the sun would lose it's gravitational influence over other stars in the stellar neighborhood.

That is not to say it is impossible for a rouge interstellar object to enter our solar system, but how unlikely would that be?

The Kuiper Belt is believed to be where most comets come from, between 30 and 50 AU out. Elenin obviously came from further out, and couldn't survive it's only solar approach. But nowhere near a light year out, or outside of the Oort cloud.
