Asteroid headed for earth 2029/2036

Let the mass hysteria begin.

Not yet, I've seen a documentary on a case like this and Bruce Willis can save us.

In the year 3007 we'll have rocket sleding on the moon!

Screw the moon! I wanna party on Mars!

Yeah! Whooooooo!

You need to stop thinking.

...if you ever thought at all to begin with.

I'm amazed at the amount of thought you put into that post while trying to refute what I said with an effective counter argument. Bravo man. I'm impressed.

Let him make a couple more movies. Then we will send his a$$ up there.

Like American Dad said, 2007...shouldn't we have flying cars by now? We were supposed to be living like The Jetsons at this point.

 

[enterthemadness]

Ummm....hm...well, can't we use the alien technology we may or may not have at Area 51 to save us?

In 2029, I'll be 42. Wow...well, lucky for me I plan on getting in shape and using skin care products in my 20's. I'll be 49 in 2036...hopefully I look like I'm in my 20's still. I don't wanna age....or die.

*goes off to find fountain of youth*

I'm sure he can start training after the next die hard film.

 

[ScottyBBadd]

I am sure by 2036 it will be figured out.

When the time comes and theres nothing we can do to stop a rock from hitting the earth, I think I'm going to go looting. If there's one thing I've learned from disaster movies...is that you always loot when the destruction of the earth is hours away.

Seriously, I probably be hugging someone and crying.

Tell me the defining difference between a small air plane and a flying car. The truth is flying cars have existed for a while. A protype flying car, small enough to fit in your garage was built in the 90's. why aren't they everywhere you look?

It requires an aviation liscense to drive one.

It takes a lot more gasoline to power one of them then a car, and gas prices are high enough as it is.

Pfftt

I'd grab myself a PS3.

It would need to be figured out much earlier than that in order to be implemented. Not to mention it's never been done before. You figure something out and then try it for the first time, and it might not work properly.

I've heard that a proton of antimatter could wipe out all of New York city.

We could launch a bomb with a few kilos of it at it?

That sounds like a lot of energy to hold together.

It's better than Plan B: People will roll around in radioactive waste. When someone gets super powers from it, they will save the earth from the giant rock in the sky. but then the person would become a super villain when he realizes that he won't get paid for saving the earth.

I like that idea. It might be a wee bit pricy. It only cost a trillion bucks to make 1 ounce of anti-matter.

Good point. But by then I will be 65, and might not care.

 

[Sam Fisher]

Isn't there an astriod coming close to us in 2017?

 

[Catman]

Don't worry, guys! We'll send Ben Affleck to destroy the asteroid.

Then we're doomed

Not nessicarily. Maybe we can put a DVD of one of his recent movies. They have been big enough bombs.

I don't think we have that ability. Anit-matter is supposed to explode on contat with regular matter. It would be difficult to store it in anything while flying it to the asteroid, not to mention, scientists don't even have the ability to look at it, let alone stick it in a bomb.

You also have to take into consideration the fact that it might make a lot of little asteroids to hit us instead of one. Or it might send the thing hurtling towards us faster.

We'll be fine.

NASA will recruit a gang of oil drillers to save the world.

 

[Speedball]

LOL!
2029 is the same year that Children of Men takes place in.
So I guess it's either we stop having kids or get killed by a giant meteor.
YAY!

You don't deserve my brand of swift and fierce justice.
