NASA and emergency planners training to tackle impending asteroid strike

in #nasa5 years ago

Experts from NASA and other government agencies are gearing up to tackle an asteroid hurtling towards Earth. No, it’s not another remake of a Hollywood blockbuster, it’s part of a simulation to prepare for the doomsday scenario.

There is a 100% chance that Earth will be struck by an asteroid. Knowing which one, and when that particular one is gonna hit is the key to figuring out what, and if, we can do about it.

It would be nice if we could avoid the kinds of hellish catastrophes that marked the YD though, and I am encouraged that these folks are actually making an effort to prepare.

Thanks!
