If you were to ask somebody who studies space and things that come from space for a living, what would happen if a large asteroid hit Earth, and his response was “pray” it probably wouldn’t be very comforting. When posed with the question, Thomas Zurbuchen, the Associate Administrator for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington not only said that, he also said that it’s not exactly a what-if scenario, but it’s a matter of when.
But don’t fret! There’s good news.
While an asteroid impact on New York could be devastating, it would seem that an asteroid impact in Los Angeles would be less devastating. Thanks to a simulation, which took place in El Segundo, CA, on October 25 they were able to figure out exactly how long emergency rescuers would have to evacuate a city. The emergency planners based their scenario on an object they tracked through space with an impact probability of 65%. However, there was a period of four months where they couldn’t track the object, making their findings shaky at best.

There’s debate on the dinosaurs, but Jimmy John it will wipe you out ha ha
Maybe in 100,000 years…
Yep….sometime. Not going to worry about it. No where to hide.
Planet killer asteroids are every 100 million years. The sun shoots us every 100 years or so.
Maybe just maybe it will hit the middle East first and wipe their asses off first before the rest of us go.
Yawn
again
Thats the plan, carry on..
Can’t do anything about it why worry
NASA is watching to many liberal Hollywood movies!
