"The CPSC has announced a voluntary recall of all bicycles. The hazard is that under certain operating conditions, particularly when the bicycle isn't moving, the lack of angular momentum to stabilize the device allows the rider to fall. This can happen if the rider slows down abruptly."

just stick to the LaGrange points - much better for boosting out of the Earth-Moon system
There's no material there. You don't want to build every spaceship or whatnot out of Earth material, do you? Each kg of material requires G*M/r joules of energy to be brought into space, where M is the mass of the planetary body, and r its radius.
For Earth that's 62.6 megajoules. For the Moon that's 2.8 megajoules. For an asteroid, it's just tiny in comparison.
- Put a big monster just behind a corner in an attempt to scare the hell out of you. - Wait for you to turn the corner. - Check heart rate. - If heart rate > 150 write "gotcha!!" on screen.
[Hardware Manufacturers] seem to get very upset when somebody asks them what the register-level interface to their card is.
You have to phrase your request nicely:
"Give us the technical specs, or we will crack your company encryption keys with our quantum computer, access all your specs, and post them on usenet."
Whether the asteroid hits or not will determine whether 0.5*m*v^2 joules of energy will be unleashed or not. Observe that angle or shape or composition don't enter the equation (and rotational energy is quite insignificant in comparison). The only parameters are the boolean value "hit", total mass, and velocity.
What you're talking about are secondary details on "how" the energy will be transferred, but regardless the total amount will be the same.

Literature: the author of more than 80 scientific reports on amusing statistical information.
80 reports? That should be enough to write an 81st scientific report on amusing statistical information about these 80 reports.
Look at the publication histogram at the bottom of this ResearchIndex citation query for 'chaos'
Can I destroy the Slashdot servers instead?
Bicycles are unstable too.
