it may be the clue of what we can do in the future to try to save life here on earth. nasa says it does not see any asteroid posing and immediate threat to earth. but in 2013, a massive media are escaped detection exploded over a remote russian village, injuring some 1500 people. impacts from asteroids have had a profound effect on life on earth. you can ask the dinosaurs about that. 66 million years ago, an asteroid nearly a mile wind made it through the atmosphere, striking mexico s peninsula. wiping out most of the dinosaurs, preventing a future meteor struck will require advanced notice unlocked. it is very reliable that nasa and other species can have decades of time. can t track these things reliably 400 plus years. with enough warnings, scientists hope that a dark
little more cynical, i said wait a minute. you think that just because you transport humans from earth s surface, where we are killing each other, into space that all of a sudden we are going to behave completely differently? then you don t understand humans. by the way, i will believe it if you can demonstrate that you can do it on earth. and by the way, if you can do it in space, why not do it on earth. show me. if why should space be any different? by the way, earth is in space. last i checked. okay? so, i m sorry i am screaming at you here, but you are getting me riled. charlie bolden was a marine corps pilot, a general, and an astronaut before becoming the head of nasa under president obama. we can t have open warfare. we have got to discipline ourselves so that we don t make this potential war fighting domain a real war fighting domain. and a lot of the streams that
