Predicting Asteroid Impacts
One of the applications of my theory in “Our Solar System As A Solution Of The Quantum Mechanical Wave Equation” is that it might help in giving us an idea of when and where to look for the impact on Earth of a possibly cataclysmic asteroid or meteor.
The theory being quantum mechanical is statistical, means it deals in frequencies. Asteroids and meteor impacts on Earth have frequencies however they are probabilities, but quantum mechanics is a probabilistic theory. It may be possible that my theory could be useful in finding when probabilities are high for asteroid or meteor impacts on Earth, giving us an idea of when and where to look.
Early detection in potential asteroids or meteors on a trajectory that could intersect with the Earth trajectory is crucial for the obvious reason that changing the trajectory of an asteroid or meteor when it is far away by a small amount with a nuclear blast means the change in its position when it gets near us will be greater.
I have started thinking about an approach to this but I really feel it would be very complicated and require experts in the field of asteroids and the asteroid belt, and quantum mechanics, with much better resources such as sophisticated computers and software.
The asteroid that ended the dinosaurs 65 million years ago hitting in Yucatan was probably only a couple miles to four miles across and probably came from the asteroid belt, but the major damage comes from it kicking up dust and dirt into the atmosphere that distributes around the globe blocking sunlight thus resulting in lack of food from vegetation dying off.
