Has anyone ever heard of a another comet that will grace our skies this coming Fall? I heard a Russian astronomist has found one heading our way and one website says that it has too wide of a range from 42 million miles to our atmosphere.
Has anyone know of this comet? Are we in danger of what Nostradamus predicted?
we are always in danger. that is how we know that we are alive.
It's true. The Mayans predicted it thousands of years ago using a long-lost branch of mathematics. Our only hope is that if we frack enough around Yellowstone the supervolcano will blow and shift our orbit out of harm's way.
Damn Ruskies! :pan:
At least we'll still a couple of space shuttles so we can send Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis, and Billy Bob Thornton with a nuclear warhead to deflect said boulder if necessary.

Of course that will kick off the superavalanche in the Canaries which will result in the 300' tall supertsunami that covers all of Florida. I'm prepared though - I have a kayak!

What about those of us without kayaks? How about a "Roadgeeks save the world" option:

I'd extend I-99 to connect to China's freeway grid.
what's the shortest route to China? why, through the center of the Earth, of course.
Genius. Absolute GENIUS!
A goodly percentage of humanity could ride out the impact on/in I-99; Post-impact, human survivors could re-emerge from the tunnel and I-99 might very well be The Last Interstate remaining.
BUILD IT NOW ... BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Wait . . . are you saying Bud Shuster may end up being the world's savior? Wild!
But I agree: building the Trans-Core Tunnel will be a lot easier than blowing up the asteroid.
