Surviving is what we do, it's what humanity is good at. I've spent the last two hours watching possible 'Armageddon' documentaries, and scientists have developed several ways that they are confident might save the Earth. You've listed them. If one intelligent scientists claims that something will work, I'll put my faith in that idea. We won't just roll over and die.

If an asteroid or comet were headed for earth, I don't think there would be anything we could do about it. We can't get an astronaut team to drill into it, because that's just not practical. We can't bomb it at all, in fact, because all we would achieve by doing that is having a bunch of RADIOACTIVE asteroid pieces fragments still headed for earth. And all of that shit about burning it with a giant magnifying glass or mounting solar panels on it to deflect its course isn't realistic either.

I didn't mean to come across as harsh as I did. I'd probably fiddle with the zoom button myself.

Right - I'm learning slowly.This is the first such video I did and I didn't plan to do it. Chance put me in a seat with an easy view. I started the camera, Canon S1 IS, as you see. Then concluded I might record the whole presentation without even standing. Tripod and more diligence would be substantially more effort. Thanks for commenting

The zoom function is evil, and whoever decided to put it on video cameras should hang his head in shame. Amateur videographers can't seem to leave that damn button alone, thus making bad videos into terrible videos.

we could send harry stamper up there to drill it and nuke it;-)

Haha! We are fucked. What could we do about it anyways? I can't blame him for being concerned, though.
