Possible Omni-Man Upgrade (Moving Texas Sized Asteroid)

Omni-Man Diverting Texas-Sized Asteroid Calculation (Lowest End and Highest End)​

Omni-Man mentioning the feat.

There are two different scales we'll use:

Armageddon Asteroid Scale​

Because the asteroid’s size and measurements in the show are left ambiguous, we can use the asteroid featured in the 1998 science fiction film Armageddon, which coincidentally featured a Texas-sized meteor that’d strike the Earth in 18 days.

So for the speed and mass:

The movie says that the asteroid is traveling at 22,000 mph x 24 hours x 18 days, which equals 9,504,000 miles away or 15,295,205.38 kilometers away or 39.7x the distance of the moon.

Measuring the Asteroid:

• RED 218.829 PX for Asteroid Length. Texas is 801 miles long, so 218.829 PX=801 for length; 801 miles is 1289000 meters
• Diameter=WHITE 218.274 PX or 798.968482 miles or 1285815.132696 meters
• Radius- 399.484241 miles or 642907.5663479 meters
• V = 4/3*pi*642907.5663479^3 =1.1131001e+18 m^3

1.1131001e+18 m^3 x 4000= 4.4524004e+21 kg/4907931321684269056 tons/43663132380000000000000 newtons

KE of the Armageddon Asteroid: 0.5 x 4.4524004E+21 x 9834.88^2=2.1532891294955E+29 J/45.95 Exatons/Moon Level​

So what’s the bare minimum amount of change in direction for a miss?

• At the 15-day mark, slowing the asteroid’s speed by even roughly 0.2% ensures a miss. At the 7-day point, it would be 0.4%.
• Slowing it by 0.2% is slowing it down by 44.0 km/hour, and 0.4% is 88.0 km/hour.

This wonderful Reddit post highlights that approximately 68,000 of the Chicxulub Asteroid (the Dinosaur-ending meteor) would be needed to throw the Earth's momentum off by 1%.

• There is a 16.5x difference between the asteroid’s mass and the Moon’s.
• Earth is 81x the mass of the Moon.
• The asteroid is 1/1336 of that of the Earth, and we're trying to slow down the speed by 0.1% or 0.2% or slightly higher, but nothing above 1%.

1336000/68000=19.6x Chicxulub Impacts needed. A singular Chicxulub Impact is equivocal to 5.8 × 10^25 joules, so 19.6 times that is 271.70 Petatons/Multi-Continental​

Standard Chicxulub Impact Calc-Stack​

• It released 2 million times the energy of Tsar Bomba via Kinetic Energy, so it's around 100 million megatons worth of TNT, and it was only 6.2 miles long with a diameter of 6.2137 miles. The volume of this is 1004.9384285301 miles^3.
• The diameter of the Armaggedon meteor was 798.968482 miles, so its volume is 2,136,375,317.0539 miles^3.

2125876.82628x difference

• The Chicxulub Impact has a value of 100,000,000,000,000 tons, so times that by 2125876.82628 and we get 2.1258768e20 tons/238.09 Exatons/Moon Level+
• Remember though, the asteroid needs to be diverted by 0.4% within 7 days, so under that assumption:

0.4% of 2.1258768e20 tons= 8.5035072e+17 tons/850 Petatons/Multi-Continental​

Results:

Armageddon Asteroid Kinetic Energy: 45.95 Exatons/Moon Level

0.2%/0.4% Armageddon Asteroid Momentum Shift: 271.70 Petatons/Multi-Continental (Bare minimum for this feat)

0.2%/0.4% Chicxulub Impact Calc-Stack w/ Armageddon Asteroid Momentum Shift: 850 Petatons/Multi-Continental

Chicxulub Impact Calc-Stack Kinetic Energy: 238.09 Exatons/Moon Level+ (This is the Kinetic Energy for the Calc-Stack portion without the Armageddon Asteroid's velocity being accounted for, although the diameter of the Armageddon Meteor remains relevant because it's Texas-Sized)

Rather than doing the calculation here, I’d suggest you making it in a blog beforehand and then adding said blog here.

You can't use the asteroid from the movie Armageddon. There is a clear statement saying how big the asteroid is. Just use the size of Texas. And for the speed, use 11000m/s, which is on the calculation page.

And already this feat has been calculated.

Since it is not known how long it takes for Omni-man to stop the asteroid and since any assumption is baseless, it was decided not to use it.

You also need to publish the calculation in a calculation blog, not in a thread. And the calculation needs to be approved before opening a CRT.
