I've actually been working on a video similar to this for about 2 years (on and off). The full video is basically the real time last 20 minutes before the end of the world. However it requires making a realistic simulation in blender. Blender is a 3d (free) renderer. Its incredibly powerful, but unfortunately has a NIGHTMARE of a learning curve. The practical upshot is it keeps being put on the back burner! This is more a teaser of it, in that the time between when the most powerful telescope can resolve an extinction-event-type meteor as a point source, and when it hits you is a few hours tops.... bummer!

FOUR HOURS till the end of the world....

It was an interesting question on the last video. Why if the hubble space telescope can see distant galaxies, could it not see the starship enterprise in orbit around the moon. .... it leads to some pretty interesting numbers about how much warning you would have between when an 'extinction event' sized asteroid is just visible in the most powerful of telescopes, and when it hits the earth!..... ya... four hours! https://www.patreon.com/Thunderf00t
