Goal of new NASA office: Protect Earth from asteroids
http://www.cnet.com/news/goal-of-new-nasa-office-protect-earth-from-asteroids/


NASA is getting into the 'protection racket'.


NASA is going to knock
on your door
and sell you 
protection insurance.

You'll say, "Protection from what??"

They'll say, 

"We are selling you insurance
to protect you from Asteroids
from killing you!"

Or, as Al Capone would say..

"You're buying protection from US!!!"



The Starmaker


NASA are just a bunch of fuckin...gangsters.


I think they come up with a 'new' racket everyday to take your money.

There is an insurance service available to take care of your pet when you are 'raptured' into heaven.

Brilliant!

There's a job opportunity for *mkr: He can work for NASA.
When there's a dangerous asteroid on course for Earth,
they can shoot him, pointy head first, at the rock.
That noggin is tough enough to crack anything. Smaller pieces 
will still be dangerous, but under a certain size they won't
survive reentry.  Larger chunks will have to be diverted,
maybe by Orion-style nuclear blasts.  But he can make
a contribution!

How do you like this new title NASA conjured up?


Planetary Defense Officer.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/innovations/wp/2016/01/13/how-nasas-planetary-defense-officer-will-protect-earth-from-asteroids/



Al Capone has to be laughing right now....



How much does a Planetary Defense Officer make and what exactly does he
do all day?


probably runs if he sees a comet coming towards him?

This will be a great headline: Planetary Defense Officer Gets Killed By
Killer Asteroid

It's clear from the geological record that the Earth has been hit by 
large objects in the past, and that the results can be devastating - 
wiped out the dinosaurs, and a good many other life forms, for example.

Lesser impacts have caused widespread, if not actually global, damage. A 
meteor could easily take out an entire city, killing millions of people.

So it's not unreasonable to seek to prevent such disasters if possible.

I'm pretty sure, "Sylvia" that a nice stiff energy tax on the order of 
maybe a trillion dollars a year would probably be pretty good protection 
from any such disaster. I think the scientific consensus agrees with me.

Given the relative expected death and infrastructure damage from 
terrorism v asteroid strikes it works out a reasonable US budget for 
asteroid avoidance is around $160 mn per year.

It could do worse than that.  
Take a look at 51° 19.744' N  68° 41.193' W in Google Earth.  That 
feature, roughly 60 miles in diameter, is a 200 million year old meteor 
crater.

Imagine if that hit, say, Hartford.  Hartford goes, and Springfield, and 
New Haven, and while they aren't actually going to be inside the crater, 
New York and Boston are both going to pretty much cease to exist, and 
most of the east coast is going to be in much the same condition as it 
might be after a nuclear attack, minus the radiation.

And it gets worse--there's reason to believe that it was a multiple 
impact with addtional strikes in France, Ukraine, North Dakota, and 
Manitoba.

Wikipedia says it's the SIXTH largest such crater, though it's the
largest easily visible one.  When I entered the co-ordinates into
google maps, I had to back out three times before the structure became
visible.

The Manicouagan wiki page says "It was once thought to be associated
with the end-Carnian extinction event."

but the Carnian page says "Its boundaries are not characterized by
major extinctions or biotic turnovers, "

So was there or was there not an extinction event at the end of the
Carnian, before we can assign it to the Manicouagan and friends
impacts.

i already told you girls, what wiped out the dinosaurs was a lack of
girl dinosaurs.



There simply was not that many dinosaurs around in those days...just a
hand full.


How many whole dinosaur bones did they find on earth by today? not
enough to keep them around long...probably under 20.

20 sets of dinosaur bones here in southeast Texas alone.  Thousands of sets of dinosaurs bones across The Great State of Texas.

Dude, you really need to up your game.

I'm talking about a whole complete set of a dinosaur. Not...a toe, or
speculative parts. 


head to toe.


I'm talking about a big dinosaur, not a little two inch lizzard.

Just give me one name.
