What if one decides to get a bit closer?

We can only hope

Sooner or later one of those chunks of space rock will have our name on it. If we are going to invest in a space program, part of that should be asteroid intercept and/or redirect technology IMO.

That is why God gave us nuclear missiles. Why be hit with one giant asteroid when we can be hit with 1,000 little radioactive ones.

The idea is to intercept way far out and not blow it up, but deflect it.

That doesn't sound like it will result in a lot of youtubes of asteroids hitting shit. I like my plan much better.

Yes we certainly would want to maximize the viral video effect on the end of the world LoL.

We need to harness the tech to guide em in.

To be fair, there is a gulf of 238,000 miles between The Earth and The Moon ... I'm pretty sure we'll be OK.

If not, it's happened before. It will happen gain.

Bummer. Was hoping it would have hit DC.
