There's a team on the moon shooting these things at us. It's only a matter of time before they dial in their instruments, and get the accuracy down! The best weapon is the one that doesn't appear to be a weapon at all.

"Prepare for more asteroids to hit earth" - What the heck does that mean? Are you implying that the statistical probability of an asteroid striking earth has magically increased? Maybe it's a quantum effect... now that we're observing asteroids we've changed the probability distribution <:) (me wearing my tinfoil hat). The other possible meaning would be that "more asteroids will hit the earth" which is akin to saying "prepare for more rain to strike the earth", or "prepare for more blame to be attributed to Bush"... self evident.

Translation - Us rich people are tired of you poor people breeding, clogging up the works, and killing the planet with all that junk we convinced you to buy so we could get rich. So we just taxed you like crazy and spent the money on Deep Underground Military Bases and the technology for us to throw theses space rocks at you, claiming we spent it all on "national security". Oh and the cool thing about it is we can blame "Nature". HAARP, Chem Trails, FEMA Bases, Follow the money. Look it up and wake up.

With ISON on its way and the all other comets that were just discovered this year and passed by the inner solar system with only months of warning, these scientific fantasies of stopping or adverting an incoming object seems nil. WE are just going to sit and watch it happen like ALL the other man made and natural disasters of the past century.

@eklipz330 - Though I agree we need massive change to happen yesterday, its not really humanity, just the ones that are controlling and manipulating the masses, and quite frankly they are doing a great job at it unfortunately.
 
Actually there is a possibility for a large asteroid to hit Earth at 2880.

Could life on Earth end on March 16, 2880? Scientists predict giant asteroid will collide with our planet at 38,000 miles per hour

Meet the Asteroid That Might Hit Earth in 2880

It is due to swing so close to Earth it could slam into the Atlantic Ocean at 38,000 miles per hour.

It is estimated that if 1950 DA were to collide with the planet, it would do so with an force of around 44,800 megatonnes of TNT.

More evidence for the cult leaders of this world to recruit with. "God has chosen to attack the non believers with space rocks" I am sure statistically our chances are always increasing to be struck again.

I hope you weren't an English major at the university. Your writing is as disastrous as a 1km meteorite impacting this planet. Asteroids don't hit the Earth, and syntax is absent from your writing. May Tom's Hardware please send you back to a proper writing institution.

If you're going to sensationalize, at least do some research into these matters and proper writing.

@ Memnarchon... by 2880, I'm pretty sure we'll have laser beams or some crazy tech that will just make the asteroid disappear. If not, the world will have already been consumed and destroyed by the natives... us.
 


Thats it! Time to break out Starship Troopers again!
 


If you are knee-deep then you are either doing it very wrong, or very right...

Why are there so many conspiracy wacko's commenting?... Its pretty simple to understand as technology advances, we FIND more asteroids that may impact.

HAARP? *facepalm*

Prepare for Astroids to hit us. We also need to prepare for the big quake off the west coast that is 20 years over due, the Ice Age from Global Warming, the rise in sea level from Global Warming, us frying from the loss of the O-Zone layer, people turning into canibals from using up all our remaining fossil fuels, a nuclear apocalypse, and finally...... Zombies.

People.... We are screwed, no matter how you look at it! Better to just live life as best you can, and be the best person you can, while you still can.

Poor reading comprehension here as proven by the lame comments.
The difference is non earth destroyers have not been tracked.

'According to the project, there are a million "near-Earth asteroids large enough to substantially damage or destroy a major city.'

That's not that difficult to understand, is it????

With your abundance of grammatical prowess it seems you would have informed everyone who you are referring too. It seems someone with such a literary background would not have overlooked such an important error.

I was in no way insinuating HAARP was directly related to the subject matter. My point was people need to stop believing everything they are told by mass media and do research for themselves. But I don't think that using huge antenna arrays to heat/excite/energize large areas of the atmosphere are a "good thing". Especially when they are joint funded programs of the Navy, Air Force, DARPA.

Who said anything about "earth destroyers"? Since when is the destruction of any city large or small OK? That's simple to understand is it not?

Until they stop keeping secrets, using mass media to spread fear, and taking away our freedoms, I will not believe one darn thing they tell me and I pity all that do.
