Meteorites seem like a stoppable event. Just give us a few more years and we'll be pretty safe and secure form their threat.

sune_Gem

100 meter ones, maybe.

Giant hulking monstrosities miles in width, I doubt it very highly.

I wouldn't be surprised if in 300 or so years we could just vaporize them into dust.

The best we could do is break them up into smaller chunks and lessen the damage and spread it out across the planet. I don't think we'll ever be able to simply destroy them with no casualties. They couldn't even predict this one to hit

Not sure if this video has been posted already, but it's a pretty spectacular compilation of footage showing the meteor: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90Omh7_I8vI Personally I think 0:37 is the most intense, it appears to be coming right at the camera.

This was a pretty bad call...

Oh and it says it was the size of an Olympic swimming pool. After it was shot down it must have impacted much smaller. Probably wouldnt have killed humanity, but still....

It isn't that asteroid that was suppose to pass. This is different.

Yep the asteroid and the meteor apparently aren't connected in any way however that is way to much of a coincidence to have that happen.

Nah, after 2012 came and went (the big one) I don't think I'm going to pay no attention to the others.

My mind was at a 20% likelyhood that it may occur. Now I don't think there's ever going to be a 1% chance, unless noteworthy scientists say so.

sune_Gem

isnt that asteroid passing in 2029 1 mile wide?.

Don't get me worked up. :|

i was wrong about the size.http://www.space.com/622-asteroid-chance-hitting-earth-2029-watched-carefully.html

The odds of it hitting are slim to none. The article says as time goes on, it's expected that the odds will be lowed to zero.

Saw some footage of that.  Pretty insane.  Interesting that a lot of the people driving around had no clue or missed the gigantic smoke trail and fireball above them.

I think it was separate. I heard about that meteor, too, though. The one that was supposed to miss us by 15 minutes. It supposedly passed closer than some of our satellites. Scary thought.

Metroids would have consumed all the energy before the crash.

According to the news over 500 people were injured, primarily by shattered glass when the Meteor's sonic boom hit as well as parts that broke off.

NASA says the airburst of the asteroid was a 300kt explosion.

Good thing it exploded at 30km+ up in the atmosphere and not a few km up over a city.

It's amazing how many car crashes and road rage incidents I've seen of that section of road from the first clip.
