Anonymous Coward 01/27/2011 01:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My honest opinion is that it will miss... However a much larger asteroid (101955 1999 RQ36) is coming earth's way in 2182, and will likely hit, with the force of 300 nuclear bombs. The space program is planning to launch a missile to 'readjust' its orbital path in 2100. It is my opinion that they have not closed the space program, but have secretly devoted it to practicing for this event. [link to neo.jpl.nasa.gov] |

Quoting: Mister ObviousMy honest opinion is that it will miss... However a much larger asteroid (101955 1999 RQ36) is coming earth's way in 2182, and will likely hit, with the force of 300 nuclear bombs.

On a more serious note is this for real? |
