Question What would most likely happen?

[Foofoo14]

Titanis is about 190Ms in size and has enough of a kick to de-orbit objects on the other side of the globe and to yank high altitude aircraft out of the atmosphere, and easily fills the gap between the moon and earth.Now, what if this planet was real and came this close to earth. Would it simply eat it up, or would it strip us of our atmosphere and kill us that way, or would it just severely disrupt earth's orbit,rotation period, and tilt?

Tidal stress on Earth would be nasty.

What's it's mass?

What's it's mass?

Titanis's Mass = 3.7972222e+27
Sun's Mass = 1.9889194444e+30

SURFS UP! NOOOOOOOOO NOT THAT HIGH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! titanis now has a new massive moon

If Earth comes inside Titanis Roche limit it would break apart. That would make a spectacular visual display that`s for sure. If Earth comes only close to Roche limit, but not crosses it I suspect the strong gravity would cause Earth to deform from spherical into oval or some other uneven shape. Likely there would be mother of all tides as oceans get pulled by gravity, tectonic plates could brake apart and huge volcanoes start everywhere.

An object close enough to yank aircraft into space and deorbit satellites would probably tear the planet to pieces.

As an object coming from outside the solar system, it would probably have quite a high velocity.

What it would do to the Earth would probably depend on it's trajectory.

If it came somewhat close to us, it would affect our trajectory. It might throw us into the Sun, throw us out into space, throw us into another planet, get us captured as it's moon etc.

If it passed close enough for us to be within the roche radius, it would probably pull us apart. A bit further away, and we wouldn't be pulled apart, but it would raise huge tides and cause massive volcanic and tectonic activity.

If it collided with us, we'd probably already have disentegrated by passing into the roche radius. I'm sure the collision would be pretty bright.

Tidal stresses would be massive.

The Moon can influence the oceans quite well and even manages to raise the crust by about 20 cm.

Sorry if I am bumping the thread...

At a mass of 3.7972222e+27, Titanis seems to be only twice the mass of Jupiter.

At this mass, it would likely not even be a brown dwarf. It would also definitely not be as large as the distance from the Earth to the Moon; it would not even be twice the size of Jupiter. Objects can be more massive than Jupiter, but unless something is heating them up, they pretty much don't go beyond Jupiter in terms of radius. Thus, Titanis would not nearly be the size described.
