Well this is something NASA should be working on ... instead of muslim outreach.

A start of a return to sanity.
Of course we could multi-task and tell muslims that the the approaching asteroid has a cartoon of mohamhead deep inside.

The dart program sounds like a good program we should be using for muslim outreach.

Wonder if a drone can be programmed to knock it off its trajectory?

Nonsense. If God wanted to destroy the planet, it would have happened long ago. And when He does, humanity cannot do a damn thing about it, in any matter He chooses. Worthless money spent on a nonexistent problem.

What could go wrong?
Nudge it the wrong way so that it is aimed at earth? Ooops, my bad....

A drone ?
Doesn’t a drone need an atmosphere to fly in ?
Even a small asteroid needs to impacted in space to move it off a earth trajectory.

Interesting. In the last few months we seem to be hearing about more asteroids. Are we entering into a more dangerous spaced?

The NASA Muslim outreach program needs to be cancelled pronto.

Do the testing to figure out how to change their orbits on asteroids who’s orbits are now entirely inside ours. Minimize the risk. Once you’ve figured out how to move them then do the additional work to determine how to approach asteroids in potentially dangerous orbits to apply the lessons of the former.

I hope they get all of their unit conversions correct and don’t end up sending the asteroid into the Kabaa...

If you see a bright light in the sky and it vears off to the left or right, you will be fine. However, if it just keeps getting bigger..........you have a problem.
