I doubt it’ll do much damage.

What ‘System of Planetary Defence” is being spoken of here? There is one? I was under the impression that we only sometimes “see” asteroids, comets, and meteors coming? And sometimes not at all ahead if they come at us “from the sun” angle?

Tiny Asteroid.

In other words, a meteor. Like thousands that enter the earth’s atmosphere daily.

Good news, we are making improvement.

(weird I already made this point on Another thread today)

While a massive asteroid strike is nearly nonexistent in % chance per year the resulting damage would be nearly infinite.

So .0000001 % chance times infinity is still enormous. The article I read said it was an insurance type probability problem. Same article said just for the yearly price to maintain one McDonald’s restaurant we could fairly well scan, Map and monitor most of the dangerous asteroids in the solar system.

That my friends is cheap insurance.

Just as long as everyone knows it’s NOT a nuclear event.

There has to be a “climate change” angle here.

Isn’t Siberia ON the Earth? But it’s going to hit Earth OVER Siberia? Which is it?

"planetary defense"

Wrong phrase...it should be asteroid detection...defense implies an ability to deflect or destroy said object.

“but it shows that the system of planetary defense is working!”

No, it shows detection is working. At this point there is no defense.

Asteroids are to Russia like tornadoes are to trailer parks.

Why is Coordinated Universal Time abbreviated UTC?

Asteroids seem to enjoy smashing down into Siberia.
