Ultra Extreme Super Extra Long Shot

[1911nut]

NASA hit that asteroid in one shot

 

[Sandstorm]

Not like they had a repeater action anyway...lol

 

[Adam in WI]

You know they were reading all you guys drooling over that dude who landed one after 69 shots and thought; bitch, please... watch this $#it

 

[chop house]

well, they can draw on MaRV technology (Maneuverable Reentry Vehicle) whereas we have only ballistics with no active guidance

[Sandstorm]

active guidance

Thats an unfair advantage.

In astronomical terms, hitting the asteroid was basically at point blank range.

I’m waiting for a astrologer to file a lawsuit against NASA for changing the trajectory of the asteroid which will supposedly alter their astrology charts. Think I’m kidding. The last time something like this was done on a comet, some loony tunes astrologer tried suing the space agency that slammed a impactore on said comet. Flat Earth anyone ?

ahhh, but i suppose some might point out the target asteroid was astronomically small.

There's a whole Flat Earth Society.

The asteroid was moving.
They had to factor in the 1,000,000 MOA "astro drift"

If the heavens gate folks were still around they woulda sued for missing their ride

I bet if you calculated cost per mile, the 4 mile guys is still cheaper!

 

[KMart]

I wonder how much you would have to lead you would have to use on a target moving that fast and that far away.

 

[M-61]

You think? NASA ‘s been working on this for over 8 years.
We paid for it and all the great benefits that come with.

 

[dttheliman]

Did I get here before the 6.5 cm guys and their man buns?

 

[nmkid]

Heavens!! Please don't bring up the 6.5 CM.

Since nobody mentioned why they did it…….

It is a effort in verifying that if they detectn asteroid that is indeed on a collision course with Earth, and that the collision would have catastrophic consequences, a small “guided spacecraft“ could nudge into a different orbital trajectory causing it to miss earth.

Is this a worthwhile project?

Ask the Dinosaurs Of the late Cretaceous Period.

See, it really is all about wind, after all.

So while there are homeless, hungry veterans in the USA it’s ok to spend untold amounts of money on ‘nudging’ an asteroid into a different orbit that may in a zillion years deliver a ‘ dinosaur fate’ (which not everyone agrees that’s what happened) to save mankind? And if so where is the contribution from other countries?
First clean up your own house before you worry what your neighbor’s is like.
Given a choice I wouldn’t give one cent to NASA.

They are still around, two were “left behind” to keep the website up, at least that is what I heard.
