It's not gonna budge
Now they creating rockets that can explode in space and form object like planets and make them viral and respected
The universe is perfectly balanced. Be extremely careful when nudging the universe to behave because something bigger just might be sent directly at us, with no way to stop it. Take heed.
Yikes
Am I the only one who notices the giant asteroid moving along w this smaller asteroid and the fact that they say it can easily miss the smaller one. Does that mean it has q chance of hitting the giant asteroid and redirecting it, possibly into our planet. This is the dumbest thing I've heard since JB last spoke!!! And we know Nasa was ran by a murderer originally. Why wouldn't we assume this event is set up to create a destructive scenario? I have faith that God will have his revenge on these people!
The earth is flat. NASA stands for "to decieve" in Hebrew. Research Operation Paperclip. The Nazi scientists that were taken after World War 2 helped build NASA that should tell you something. God is real and His return is near. You are not just a speck of nothing in space on a random planet, you are created by The Most High with purpose. If you really seek for truth look for Jesus. He said He is the way, the truth, and the life. God bless you and I hope The Lord shines His truth into whoever receives this message. ðŸ™ÂÂ
I say put a banner on the asteroid reading "LET'S GO BRANDON!!!!"
They lie…
Well we die
who is financing this? where is the money coming from? people are starving and dying and we are spaced out so to speak
what goes up must come down
This is a monumental waste of taxpayers dollars. Would a fly alter the course of a semi moving through space at a high rate of speed ? There’s math involved here that obviously NASA hasn’t taken into consideration. It doesn’t matter the speed at which you hit another moving object with there’s that mass thing to take into consideration. My bet is this thing won’t do anything to alter this asteroids course but will create more tiny asteroids.
NASA practice targets with asteroids. What could possibly go wrong? 😖
Lets see how long will take for a group of people to start protesting about “Asteroids Lives Matterâ€ÂÂ
This is all fake. This is just disinformation to keep deceiving humanity. We live in an enclosed world. There are no other planets, there is just earth.
Give that asteroid a Johnson and Johnson booster shot then rub some Preparation h hemorrhoid on it . That's how things are done here .
This is the STUPIDEST idea…. RECKLESS
Were all gonna die!!! Well not the elite rich
The funny thing that could happen is they actually change its course to actually hit earth
Yeah try this on the asteroid Apophis.. if you don't know what asteroid this is you need to look it up it may be a catastrophic event they're not telling you about. If it hits the Earth it will destroy 60 or 70% of the population. They're not telling you about this go look it up please do the research.
Aim it toward China, 2 birds 1 stone
Better late than never to start practicing intercepting hyper speed object to defend those Chinese missiles.
NASA gonna "nudge" this one into another asteroid the size of Texas that would have never hit us but is now. Hopefully California takes the direct hit.
Without the 'aide' of major media, how would any average person be able to know the difference between an asteroid impact and a nuclear weapon attack from space?
This is an old documentary I watched on Nova
Surprised no one is going with the "It's because of our Climate this Asteroid is hurdling towards us", I'm sure it's coming though at some point.
Half the people commenting are absolutely brain dead 😆I’m talking legitimately dumb individuals…
Everybody got a play God. We are the most foolish animals in existence.
Songs almost more like an agenda. The satellite hits the asteroid then the government shuts down the grid for a global blackout, while the elitists are in bunkers
…. No why? Let it hit. This planet needs a good system reboot. Just sad I wouldn't be alive to see it happen.
I would trust fate that we won’t be hit rather than have our government screw it up…
Nothing but fantasy
Someone for the love of outer space please explain to me how ANY mechanism, vehicle, biological life as we know it, survive in an almost perfect vacuum….???? We can’t even come close to replicating a near perfect vacuum on earth. NOT EVEN CLOSE. Look it up!
“Must. Sell. Fear. Bleep. Bleep. Blurp.†– mass media
Bahahaha people still fall for this 🤣
Good luck with that.
That's smile looks forced 🚩🚩🚩
the last time they did this russia got hit with asteroid…
NASA. Not A Space Agency 😂😂😂
Space is fake morons. Only slaves believe in it. 🚀🌌🖕 Earth is flat. You have to have a single digit i.q to believe this ðŸÂ‚💩
I guess negotiations with aliens are breaking down and now we're gonna have to defend ourselves from being terraformed
This probably won’t end well..
