A reminder of natures power

An example of natures power. This one has intrigued me for years.

NASA - The Tunguska Event--100 Years later

Man's work is relatively puny.

The scary part is that it will happen again and there is nothing to be done.

Shoot, just get some Astronuts from Texas, they have to have big hats, put 'em on a space ship and blast them off to the big fast moving rock in space. Then them Texstronuts can let out a long lasso, hook up the big rock and move it somewhere else.

Easy. I'm sure there was a movie about this.....




You know what reminds me of natures power and how punny we are?

Weed, grass, and other growing things. How much work do we do to keep an area clear of some growing thing. We fight It. We poison It. We cut It. We plow It. Yet It keeps returning. As soon as we quit, usually meaning we die off, IT takes over. We just managed it for a short time.

Look at old farm fields. Momma nature spews countless trillons of seeds into the air every year and it lands somewhere. Once an opening occurs, It grows.

Later,

Yes there was a movie about an asteroid but Hollywood Physics isn't all that great!

Mother Nature always wins in the end.
Turn your back for a while and she sneaks up on you.
Mothers are always a force to be reckoned with.
