Estava surfando na internet esses dias, e encontrei um assunto interessante. Tenho certeza que todos ja pensaram em como destruir o nosso pequeno planeta azul.
Bom, resolvi postar aqui um tutorial de como fazer isso, só que ele vai estar em inglês. Aqui esta ele: [Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem] "Destroying the Earth is harder than you may have been led to believe.
You've seen the action movies where the bad guy threatens to destroy the Earth. You've heard people on the news claiming that the next nuclear war or cutting down rainforests or persisting in releasing hideous quantities of pollution into the atmosphere threatens to end the world.
Fools.
The Earth is built to last. It is a 4,550,000,000-year-old, 5,973,600,000,000,000,000,000-tonne ball of iron. It has taken more devastating asteroid hits in its lifetime than you've had hot dinners, and lo, it still orbits merrily. So my first piece of advice to you, dear would-be Earth-destroyer, is: do NOT think this will be easy.
This is not a guide for wusses whose aim is merely to wipe out humanity. I (Sam Hughes) can in no way guarantee the complete extinction of the human race via any of these methods, real or imaginary. Humanity is wily and resourceful, and many of the methods outlined below will take many years to even become available, let alone implement, by which time mankind may well have spread to other planets; indeed, other star systems. If total human genocide is your ultimate goal, you are reading the wrong document. There are far more efficient ways of doing this, many which are available and feasible RIGHT NOW. Nor is this a guide for those wanting to annihilate everything from single-celled life upwards, render Earth uninhabitable or simply conquer it. These are trivial goals in comparison.
This is a guide for those who do not want the Earth to be there anymore."

Antimatter - the most explosive substance possible - can be manufactured in small quantities using any large particle accelerator, but this will take preposterous amounts of time to produce the required amounts. If you can create the appropriate machinery, it may be possible to find or scrape together an approximately Earth-sized chunk of rock and simply to "flip" it all through a fourth spacial dimension, turning it all to antimatter at once.
Method: Once you've generated your antimatter, probably in space, just launch it en masse towards Earth. The resulting release of energy (obeying Einstein's famous mass-energy equation, E=mc2) is equivalent to the amount the Sun outputs in some 89 million years. Alternatively, if your matter-flipping machinery is a little more flexible, turn half the Earth into antimatter (say, the Western Hemisphere) and watch the fireworks.
Earth's final resting place: When matter and antimatter collide, they completely annihilate each other, leaving nothing but energy. All that would be left of Earth is a scintillating flash of light expanding across space forever. This method is one of the most permanent and total on this list, as the very matter which makes up the Earth ceases to exist, making it virtually impossible to even reassemble the planet afterwards.
Feasibility rating: 2/10. It IS possible to create antimatter, so, technically, this method IS possible. But since the proposed matter-to-antimatter flipping machine is probably complete science fiction, we're looking at stupid, stupid amounts of time to pull this off.[/b]
Comments: With a significantly smaller amount of antimatter, you can simply blow the Earth up - see later."

[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]FissionedYou will need: a universal fission machine (e.g. a particle accelerator), an unimaginable amount of energy
Method: Take every single atom on planet Earth and individually split each one down to become hydrogen and helium. Fissioning heavier elements to become hydrogen and helium is the opposite of the self-sustaining reaction that powers the Sun: it requires you to put energy in which is why the energy requirements here are so vast.
Earth's final resting place: While Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are gas giants composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, they are massive enough to actually hold on to their tenuous atmospheres. The Earth is not; the gases would dissipate away. You'd get a wispy mess of gas where there should have been a planet.
Feasibility rating: 2/10. Technically possible, but, again, hopelessly, mind-bogglingly inefficient and time-consuming. You're looking at billions of years minimum, folks.

[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]Sucked into a microscopic black holeYou will need: a microscopic black hole.
Note that black holes are not eternal, they evaporate due to Hawking radiation. For your average black hole this takes an unimaginable amount of time, but for really small ones it could happen almost instantaneously, as evaporation time is dependent on mass. Therefore your microscopic black hole must have greater than a certain threshold mass, roughly equal to the mass of Mount Everest.
Creating a microscopic black hole is tricky, since one needs a reasonable amount of neutronium, but may possibly be achievable by jamming large numbers of atomic nuclei together until they stick. This is left as an exercise to the reader.
Method: simply place your black hole on the surface of the Earth and wait. Black holes are of such high density that they pass through ordinary matter like a stone through the air. The black hole will plummet through the ground, eating its way to the centre of the Earth and all the way through to the other side: then, it'll oscillate back, over and over like a matter-absorbing pendulum. Eventually it will come to rest at the core, having absorbed enough matter to slow it down. Then you just need to wait, while it sits and consumes matter until the whole Earth is gone.
Earth's final resting place: a singularity with a radius of about nine millimetres, which will then proceed to happily orbit the Sun as normal.
Feasibility rating: 3/10. Highly, highly unlikely. But not impossible.

You will need: Means for focusing a good few percent of the Sun's energy output directly on the Earth.
What I'm talking about here is: mirrors, and lots of them. Intercept several decent sized asteroids for raw materials and start cranking out kilometre-square sheets of lightweight reflective material (aluminised mylar, aluminium foil, nickel foil, iron foil or whatever you can scrape together). They need to be capable of changing focus direction at will because, while a few may be placed at the Earth-Sun system's Lagrangian points, the vast majority cannot be stationary in space and the relative positions of the Earth and Sun will be shifting as time passes, so attach a few manoeuvering thrusters and a communications and navigation system to each sheet.
Preliminary calculations suggest you would need roughly two trillion square kilometres of mirror.
Method: Command your focusing array to concentrate as much solar energy as you can directly on the Earth - perhaps on its core, perhaps at a point on its surface. So the theory goes, this will cause the Earth to generally increase in temperature until it completely boils away, becoming a gas cloud.
A variation on this method involves turning the Sun into a gigantic hydrogen gas laser.
Earth's final resting place: A gas cloud.
Feasibility rating: 3/10. The major problem here is: What's to stop the matter cooling and becoming a planet again? In fact, once the top layer of planet becomes gaseous, what would compel it to vent into space rather than remaining on the surface, absorbing more heat and preventing the lower layers from even being heated? Unless the amount of heat put in was really immense, all you'd get is a gas planet at best, and a temporary one at that. Moving the Earth towards the Sun (see later) is likely to be a far more viable method.

[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]OverspunYou will need: some means of accelerating the Earth's rotation.
Accelerating the Earth's rotation is a rather different matter from moving it. External interactions with asteroids might move the Earth but won't have a significant effect on how fast it spins. And certainly it won't spin the Earth fast enough. You need to build rockets or railguns at the Equator, all facing West. Or perhaps something more exotic...
Method: The theory is, if you spin the Earth fast enough, it'll fly apart as the bits at the Equator start moving fast enough to overcome gravity. In theory, one revolution every 84 minutes should do it - even slower would be fine, in fact, as the Earth would become flatter and thus more prone to breaking apart as you spun it faster.
Feasibility rating: 4/10. This could be done - there is a definite upper limit on how fast something like the Earth can spin before it breaks apart. However, spinning a planet is even more difficult than moving it. It's not as simple as attaching rockets pointing in each direction to each side...

[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]Sucked into a giant black holeYou will need: a black hole, extremely powerful rocket engines, and, optionally, a large rocky planetary body. The nearest black hole to our planet is 1600 light years from Earth in the direction of Sagittarius, orbiting V4641.
Method: after locating your black hole, you need get it and the Earth together. This is likely to be the most time-consuming part of this plan. There are two methods, moving Earth or moving the black hole, though for best results you'd most likely move both at once. See the Guide to moving Earth for details on how to move the Earth. Several of the methods listed can be applied to the black hole too, though obviously not all of them, since it is impossible to physically touch the black hole, let alone build rockets on it.
Earth's final resting place: part of the mass of the black hole.
Feasibility rating: 6/10. Very difficult, but definitely possible.
______________________________________________
[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]Total existence failureYou will need: nothing
Method: No method. Simply sit back and twiddle your thumbs as, completely by chance, all two hundred thousand million million million million billion trillion atoms making up the planet Earth suddenly, simultaneously and spontaneously cease to exist. Note: the odds against this actually ever occuring are considerably greater than a googolplex (1010100) to one. Failing this, some kind of arcane (read: scientifically laughable) probability-manipulation device may be employed.
Current feasibility rating: 0/10. Even if you look at the significantly greater probability of the Earth randomly rearranging itself into separate two planets, this is utter, utter rubbish.

Written off in the backlash from a stellar collision
You will need: another star. White dwarf is good, but we're not fussy.
[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]Method: Crash your star into the Sun.
The interactions between the two stars in this very violent stellar event will cause more fusion to occur inside the Sun than normally does in 100,000,000 years. The result is not unlike a supernova explosion, though slower - a staggering amount of matter and energy is released outwards, burning the Earth to a crisp and firing it into interstellar space at best, completely incinerating it at worst.
Earth's final resting place: burnt pieces.
Feasibility rating: 4/10. This is listed under natural methods because there is absolutely no way you can move a star. Well, there are ways and means, but if you can move a star, why not move the Earth into that star? And the chances of this happening - even considering that in two billion years' time the Milky Way is going to collide with Andromeda - are very, very slim. Calculations suggest that the number of actual stellar collisions that are likely to occur in that exchange will be SIX. Six chances in about a hundred billion.
Hmm. That's actually pretty high for this list. Make it 5/10.

[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]Hurled into the SunYou will need: Earthmoving equipment.
Method: Hurl the Earth into the Sun, where it will be rapidly melted and then vaporized by the Sun's heat.
Sending Earth on a collision course with the Sun is not as easy as one might think. Contrary to popular opinion, Earth's orbit is not "unstable" and Earth will not begin to spiral into the Sun if we give it the slightest of nudges (otherwise, you can bet it would have happened already). It's surprisingly easy to end up with Earth in a loopy elliptical orbit which merely roasts it for four months in every eight. Careful planning will be needed to avoid this.
Earth's final resting place: a small globule of vaporized iron sinking slowly into the heart of the Sun.
Comments: As far as energy changes are concerned, this method is inferior to the next one.
This method is essentially a variation on the Solar Oven method listed above, wherein you bring the Sun to the Earth (in a manner of speaking).
Feasibility rating: 9/10. Impossible at our current technological level, but will be possible one day, I'm certain. In the meantime, may happen by freak accident if something comes out of nowhere and randomly knocks Earth in precisely the right direction.

[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]WormholedYou will need: A stable Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen bridge, a.k.a. a wormhole.
Method: Depending on how powerful your technology is, there are a variety of possible methods. Bridging the centre of the Earth with the centre of the Sun would do the trick very efficiently, with the Sun's million-degree heat instantly boiling the Earth from the inside.
Alternatively, open a large wormhole at the Sun's core and the other end in deep space, rapidly venting all the Sun's fuel and hastening its transition to the Red Giant stage. Drain all this fuel rapidly enough and you might even be able to cause a supernova.
You could even bridge the Earth's core with deep space, causing it to implode - although the toothpaste-shaped remnant appearing at the other end may well collapse back to form a planet again.
Earth's final resting place: Variable.
Feasibility rating: 2/10. Wormholes probably aren't actually scientifically possible, and even if they are: opening one at the centre of the Sun? Come on.

[Tens de ter uma conta e sessão iniciada para poderes visualizar esta imagem]Death StarAs you may or may not know, a planet — like Earth or an unsuspecting Alderaan — is actually really hard to destroy. It’s really easy to kill all the life on the surface of the planet, or make it so the surface of the planet would be completely useless for billions of years, but it’s actually really hard to destroy the planet itself.
For the Sith, just killing everyone on the surface of the planet isn’t good enough. Darth Vader can probably do that with the Force in his sleep. The Sith need a weapon that will destroy any inhabited planet into a pile of space rubble, and preferably quickly. Unfortunately for them and the Death Star, planets have a large variety of physics that prevent them from being destroyed by just anyone’s galactic weapon of mass death.
The first problem is that you can’t take shortcuts, like vaporizing the surface. This would make the planet uninhabitable and destroy all life, but the planet itself would just turn into a gas planet, held together by that stupid gravity we keep hearing about. Then, over millions of years, all the gas would cool and the planet could start all over again. There might even be a chance for life, which means a chance for intelligent life, which means a chance for future Jedis.
So we’re going to need to drill the laser into the planet and destroy the whole thing. This brings us to the problems with gravity again. Even if you were to build a giant laser capable of slicing a planet in half and then you used that aforementioned laser on an unsuspecting Alderaan, stupid Alderaan gravity would slam the planet back together again. Sure, the resulting force will obviously kill all life on the surface of the planet, but… you know… not good enough.
Ultimately, you’re going to have to use your laser to provide such a large force that all the resulting chunks are each fast enough to escape the gravity of the planet, or — in advanced words — have enough acceleration to achieve escape velocity. Seeing as we don’t have this data for Alderaan, we’re going to change our target to Earth.
We’ve learned from Wikipedia Physics class that the escape velocity for Earth is 11.186 kilometers per second. Knowing that the magic equation KE = .5mv2, or kinetic energy (in joules) = .5(mass of object in kg)(velocity of object in meters/second)2, we can tell how much kinetic energy will be needed to accelerate the earth (or rather, all of its soon to be pieces) to it’s own escape velocity.
We just plug into the equation, and presto! We get that KE = .5(5.9736×1024)(11,186m/s)2, which equates to a kinetic energy of 3.737×1032 joules.
Of course, it must be noted that as the surface of the planet is lasered apart, the lower parts will have less escape velocity (because the mass gets increasingly smaller), so the kinetic energy is a bit more than you’d actually need to destroy Earth. However, the explosion seen in the Star Wars movie also happened absurdly fast with a large amount of force, which indicates that each piece is being thrown apart with a lot more than just escape velocity.
Now, sadly, this doesn’t answer the problem of “Can the Death Star Really Destroy a Planet?” Of course, the answer is “yes”, as the Death Star is fictional, and it did destroy a planet. However, 3.737×1032J is a lot of energy. Imagine an area the size of Iraq (438,317km2). Fill that entire area with strings of lightbulbs as dense as possible. With that amount of energy, you could power all those lightbulbs for roughly 22 trillion years.
3.737×1032J is also:
* The energy in 249 sextillion lightning bolts.
* The energy released by 893 trillion combined atomic bombs.
* Enough energy to power the world for 471 times the current age of the universe.
* Equal to the sustained energy output of the sun for 11.2 days.
* 1,384 trillion times the energy output of a photon torpedo. (Using data from the TNG Technical Manual)
So you’re going to have to find some way to store that large amount of energy. Since it’s the future, we don’t need to get into the technicalities of just how to do that, but given that it’s the size of a planet itself, we can assume that a large amount of it is devoted to energy storage.
If you noticed the fourth bullet, you could be powering a similar device with sustained solar power in a Dyson Sphere type deal. Of course, beyond the feasibility of storing a sun as the core of a spaceship, the idea is still impractical for two reasons — one shot on a planet would deplete a little over 11 days of normal operation, and your doomship would have to be much larger than one would want.
The Death Star in the films and extended semi-canon novels was given to be between 120 and 160 kilometers which is 8,700 times smaller than the Sun. Additionally, the Death Star is not only powering a laser, but it also has to provide for “a crew of 265,675, as well as 52,276 gunners, 607,360 troops, 30,984 stormtroopers, 42,782 ship support staff, and 180,216 pilots and support crew.” Additionally, it has to power “10,000 turbolaser batteries, 2,600 ion cannons, and at least 768 tractor beam projectors.” Lastly, the first death Star was able to recoup the 3.737×1032J in a day, and the second Death Star was rumored to be hypothetically capable of recouping the energy in a mere three minutes. Solar energy is out.
While not ruling out “sufficiently advanced technology”, what things that are known about today could be powering the ship? What about the matter-antimatter thing you hear about from nearly every Star Trek episode where the warp drive goes haywire? In a matter-antimatter explosion, the energy output is equal to the famous equation E=mc2. So how much matter/antimatter would we need? We can solve for it.
E = mc2
3.737×1032 = m(9×1016)
m = (3.737×1032)/(9×1016)
m = 4,152,222,222,222,222kg
Even with total conversion of mass into energy — which is the most efficient source of energy known — a little more than four trillion metric tons of antimatter would be consumed in the production of one planet destroying beam charge. So how much space would that take up? It’s impossible to say without knowing the density of antimatter. However, you would also need a method of constantly replenishing the reaction; needing to be able to generate trillions of metric tons every day (or every three minutes).
Another idea involves a little mix with Stargate SG-1, and to have a network of mobile Stargates or wormholes to flow the energy into. This would reduce the space requirements, but you still would need enough wormhole volume to flow the energy through in a quick enough manner. With no space constraints, it would be feasible using advanced future tech to channel energy from a stellar body or group of stellar bodies that generate 5,376 suns of energy output — enough to fire a shot every three minutes.
So either the Sith crossed over to MGM, or they got their hands on some crazy power stuffs, or maybe they really are powering the whole thing with the Force.
I’m running out of ideas to power the massive energy needed to destroy a planet.
Feasibility rating: 9/10
