[Immortalfire]

Oh lordy. Not another asteroid.

Ok, Drizzle? I just want to make sure you know that we do not want it to hit... It kinda sounds like you're going to actively try and help this along.

I'm already stocked up...but not by choice. Damn economy.

From what I've read growing up, they've known about this for a few decades.

It was Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler that saved the day.

Russia May Attack Asteroid That's Virtually No Threat


Russia is considering a plan to launch a spacecraft capable of moving a huge asteroid in a bid to protect Earth from an impact, but the target space rock poses virtually no threat to our planet and moving it could actually make matters worse, experts say.

don't forget Billy Bob Thorton. He can knock it away with his Sling Blade.

So if it's heading to Earth and will have no impact, what the **** are they discussing it for? You don't talk about the **** unless it's gonna incinerate us all.

 

[BlackLantern]

it makes for interesting conversation....and who doesn't love astronomical phenomena??

 

[Mike_D202]

Depending on where it hits us it could be pretty traumatic.

No, as in roughly the late 80's. Unless the astroid they were talking about was something that went off course by a lot and wasn't a threat anymore.
