Asteroid Impact

[SlyUrbanFox]

I haven't seen my physics tutor for 20+yrs ! I think the point he was making is that one big rock could wipe out millions so the mathematical probability works out about the same. Lies, dam lies, and statistics

Short of an underground bunker, there is not a lot I think I can do to prep for an asteroid strike. If someone does spot one coming, what are the chances of those with that knowledge letting the rest of us know? Do they create mass panic or quietly disappear into their bunker whilst we are in ignorant bliss. I keep reading news reports of the one that got away. You only ever hear about a near earth encounter after it has happened. I would like to know before.
