Russians Planning to Avert Asteroid
Do you remember hearing about a 885-Foot asteroid that was found in 2004? If not then you better remember it now because it is believed that it'll collide with Earth, killing hundreds of thousands of human lives. Although this all just speculation since most scientists believe it's an impossibility but the theories of scientists don't seem to change the mind of the President of Russia.
A project is in the works that will probably be assisted by NASA, The European Space Agency, the Chinese Space Agency, and many more. The project is pretty much trying to find a way on how to avert the asteroid and some have the idea to make a spacecraft to collide with the asteroid and hope that it changes it's course away from Earth.
Studies say that the asteroid will make impact in 2029, when it is expected to come no closer than 18,300 miles from our planet's surface. But still, it's indicated that it's a small possibility that the big chunk of rock will hit us.
To know more about all this stuff, read the article through the link I posted on top.
Goddang it Empire, you just had to blow up Alderon didn't you? Next time, blow up a planet that doesn't have chunks of rock that may come at us (sorry, I was just trying to bring some humor in here).
