On monday, an asteroid the size of a 15 storey building passed within 40000km from earth. That's one sixth the distance to the moon, and about twice the distance of geo-sync satellites. If it hit on land, it would have threatened life all over the planet, if it hit in the ocean it would have triggered 50m tsunamis all over the world. It has been monitored for months
Be open-minded, but not so much that your brain falls out

in future... A 1,000-foot-diameter rock will swing back again in 2029. It's expected to zip within about 19,000miles of Earth - closer than many satellites. But what has scientists even more worried is its next visit, in 2036. Depending on the exact trajectory of its orbit, it could be on a collision course with Earth.

Don't worry... people United States Space command developed a network called "deep space network" + satellites equipped with nuclear missiles to eliminate these threats. Rest assured God Father is here to protect the world and off course Muslims too. While we are busy chopping heads !
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
