The best way for us to save ourselves from an asteroid flying toward Earth is to explode an atomic bomb in its way to deflect the asteroid from its path.
Of course it has to be properly calculated to plan ahead where the asteroid would be redirected to, so that it does not cause major harm. This is probably the best use of atomic bombs for us as a humanity.
