Earth/ Sky News tells us of a project to study near Earth objects with the hope we'll be able to divert them from a collision with Earth. I'll admit my deep down skepticism of so- called science took hold, except there's no question in my mind asteroids and such in space pose a threat to our very existence.

You can read more and sign the petition here. Scroll down to sign the petition at the bottom of the page, as I did. No harm done.

One concern I have is if they do come up with some sort of kinetic energy application to push an asteroid to a safe path, what if they try it, get it wrong and end  up pushing it into a more direct path toward Earth? Yikes!
