they should really consider nameing the things after the the date of impact. i nearly shit myself when i glanced at the title.
but seriously people, it was and still is inevitable. no use bitchin about it, at least not for a decade or two anyway. after a few years of observation we will be much more sure of its trajectory. you know after years of hearing my pastor say that this was the last generation, i am gonna be pissed if he was right./rant
anywho, the asteroid is not what we have to worry about. as the time draws near what do you think the people of the world are gonna be doing? twiddling thumbs? hardly, if a impact is comfired the shit will hit the fan in terms the economy. i mean think about it, what happened the week after 9-11, the stock market plunged like 700 points. why...? becuase people thought it was going to so they pulled out. if this starts looking bad we could be in trouble long before the the astroid hits us.....
would it be cheaper to use disposible rockets to finish the iss? or are they worried about the possiblity of long term failure of the aging shuttle fleet...
