Schweickart's group will host a series of meetings to provide the UN with a 'decision process' for assessing and acting on the hazard posed by Apophis and other near-Earth asteroids (NEAs). A draft document ready for consideration by the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space is expected by 2009.

It would be entertaining to see the clowns at the UN if there were a real observable threat. For the record, they would be complaining the the United States isn't doing enough to counter the threat.

Under the radar, discerning UN clowns would be phoning NASA and the Joint Chiefs asking nicely what could be done.

"this is inherently going to be an international decision".

This is why, if it ever actually comes down to it, the US should just go ahead and fix it ourselves.

The last thing we need it to set up some UN office, run by Kofi Annan or some such bureaucrat, who embezzles his budget only to find there is nothing built which can handle the threat when it actually comes.

Fix it ourselves, save the planet, and earn the eternal hatred of the rest of the world for our trouble.

blam - a most appropriate screen name for this article...........

Revelation 8:8-9

8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood:
9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.

We're sending Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck up to drill a hole in it and explode a nuclear bomb.

Even if this all turns out to be a false alarm, we still get rid of Ben Affleck.
