The main cause of a Gamma Ray Burt, or GRB, is when a star dies it collapses into itself. Same consept as a black hole. But when GRB's occur, the tar spins very fast, and flattens itself out like a pancake, and a shot of gamma radiation is projected outward on both sides of the star. There are two types of GRB's, short and long bursts. Fortunately these are very rare, and the chances of one of these hitting the earth is 1 in 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000. If one of these do ht the earth it will immediately destroy our ozone killing everything on Earth instantly.

What would happen if a gamma ray burst hit the earth?
If a gamma ray burst hit Earth, it could potentially strip away the ozone layer, leading to an increase in harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. This could have catastrophic effects on the environment and life on Earth. However, the likelihood of a gamma ray burst hitting Earth directly is very low.
What is a gamma pulse?
I presume you mean a "gamma ray burst." This is a burst of gamma ray energy, lasting from less than a second to a few minutes, that comes from outside our galaxy. Despite being from that far away, they are measurable on our planet, meaning the energy release in one second of a gamma ray burst is greater than the energy that our Sun will release in its entire ten billion year life cycle. GRB's are now thought to be from the collapse of a massive star, but the question has not been completely settled. If a gamma ray burst from within our galaxy were to hit our Earth, all life on our planet, even bacteria, would end within a few days.
Gamma-ray burst fireball model?
A gamma-ray burst, or GRB, is one of the most energetic events in the universe. The Fireball model describes why GRBs tend to have high energy levels. It also explains the time scales that govern them and why they generate an afterglow.
Can a gamma ray burst effect the Earth?
It depends on how far the source is. Check out the site I linked below.
Do Gamma ray burst form a black hole?
In an indirect way, yes. Gama rays are the highest-intensity form of electromagnetic energy. They usually indicate a very power energy source. Most black holes are formed by exploding stars called supernovas. These events can be detected as gamma ray bursts.
Why black holes form Gamma ray burst?
The black holes from Gamma ray usually burst because of their energetic form.
What would happen to earth if it got hit by a gamma-ray burst?
Earth gets hit every day by gamma-ray bursts - from far, far away. Depending on how near the gamma-ray burst is, it may cause some serious damage.
What are the release dates for Mega Disasters - 2006 Gamma Ray Burst 2-3?
Mega Disasters - 2006 Gamma Ray Burst 2-3 was released on: USA: 18 September 2007
What if earth were hit by a gamma ray burst?
The earth would be completely destroyed.
What is the amplitude in a gamma ray burst?
The amplitude of a gamma-ray burst refers to the peak brightness of the burst. It is the measure of how intense the burst is at its peak emission. Gamma-ray bursts are extremely energetic and can release more energy in seconds than the sun will emit in its entire lifetime.
What is a gamma-ray burst, and how does it happen?
It happens when two gamma rays come from different stars and collide and make a big explosion . A gamma ray burst is when two gamma rays come from different stars and collide and make a big explosion. BOOM
How much hotter is a gamma ray burst than the sun?

What can scientists do to prepare for a gamma ray burst?
At our current level of technology absolutely nothing.
Is a gamma-ray burst more powerful than a pulsar?
A gamma ray burster emits an amount of gamma ray energy in one pulse roughly equal all EM radiation energy of a galaxy in a year. So yes.
What would happen if a gamma ray burst hit the earth?
If a gamma ray burst hit Earth, it could potentially strip away the ozone layer, leading to an increase in harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. This could have catastrophic effects on the environment and life on Earth. However, the likelihood of a gamma ray burst hitting Earth directly is very low.
What is gamma ray bursts?
A gamma ray burst results from an extremely energetic implosion/explosion, as in supernovae or hypernovae events, or the less likely possibility of the combination of 2 neutron stars.
