For the first time, astronomers have found an object on a certain collision course with Earth: a small, few-meter sized asteroid, 2008 TC3, that was found Monday and likely struck this morning over northern Sudan.

They should try to shoot it down just for fun.

They found a Plymouth TC3 in Space?
I always wondered where my brother lost his.....

this ought to be quite interesting.

It's the mothership!

Put on your Nike's and head for the bunk beds!

Okay, so can we have this panic in an orderly fashion?

Nymphomaniacs and Bisexual women (without children) come with me. The rest of you are on your own.

Now Run!!!!!

We need an Asteroid Service to predict and shoot these things down.

Oh yeah, I forgot.

We got no money! We can't even get ourselves to the space station soon!

Calling Harry Stamper...

Still waiting for the punch line...

One day's notice, not a chance in hell any country could put anything together, not even a half-baked crackpot hollywood movie plot could be penned in that time.

1 years notice, mostly the same as above. The technology dosn't exist and there is no budget available or public will to fund it. Basically, you'd have a year to bend over and kiss you ass goodbye.

10 years notice, possibly some hope, but most probably it would be kiss your ass goodbye time in 10 years. The money required would cause the idiot politicians to run aroud for 8 years trying to fund it and 2 years would not be enough time to get anything done.

20 years notice. See above. Politicians would delay doing anything meaningfull for 10 years because it is too far off to be politically viable to spend any money on something not affecting people during their term. Then the same thing would happen the last ten years as above.

Given ANY amount of warning, the best you can hope for is to kiss your ass goodbye. You'd just have more time to practice bending over the longer the warning was.

Jesus will protect us all! Except the gays. And the liberals. and the femenists. And the Jewish bankers.

Jesus protected us this time by crashing it into the Sudan.

There are only Commies and Obama Loving Blackpeoples in Sudan that Jesus doesn't like.

Don't worry. Be Happy.

Signed, The Right.

No doubt this is a cover story. The US military is going to unleash a Mother Of All Whats-its over Saudi Arabia, poisoning millions of Mooslims with airborne radiation or chemicals. Pork rinds, maybe. The asteroid is just a gimmick to hide the real source of the air burst. Of course the payload won't be fast acting. It'll kill people slowly, so as not to draw attention to the US.

Just you watch. People will die in Saudi Arabia after this thing goes off.

I'm with Dumperling. As long as it's just a bunch of gay jewish muslims, who cares?

Maybe it was headed for Khadafeys tent.

Here's an update on the arrival of the asteroid:

coulda been a loogie from a UFO. Or a fozen ball of shit. who knows.

That Wasilla preacher laid his hands on some portion of Sarah's anatomy and prayed that the asteroid not fall on her. Goes to show you just what REAL Christianity can do for YOU. herm

that would be frozen.

If they saw a big one coming, do you think they'd tell us?

If it was a 6 KM asteroid they probably would not tell us that our earth is hitting the reset button.

"do you think they'd tell us?"

You?


BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

No way!


"do you think they'd tell us?"


If you hear Bush and Cheney are taking a ride on the next shuttle mission to express support for NASA, kiss your ass goodbye.

I want to know where the next one is supposed to hit, so I can bring a few beers and my lawn chair.

Worry not, libs says that we don't need God, Floppy, Al Gore and scientists will save us.

Someone needs to learn the proper use of a comma.

This is surely aliens that are going to attack one of the presidential candidates. Just who isn't clear. I isn't likely to be on racist grounds as they are green. This is just a first strike and we know that it is just a "feeler". Just watch the movie Starship Troopers and look what happened to a major city. There is an alien conspiracy afoot. Beware! As your local branch of Scientology. They know!

BB--Take it from here.....

Too bad they did not even have the technology and the transport capabilities to go to the Sudan and see if they could at least paint the rock with a laser, just for fun.

I want to know when/where the damn things land too...so I can go get it!

Meteorite or their fragments are worth a small fortune!

Are you suggesting that God will save you from an asteroid?

"do you think they'd tell us?"

I used to work with a woman whose husband was involved in whatever international scientific project there is to identify all the asteroids that are potential near earth objects and track their orbits and movements.

I used to tell her, facetiously, that she was for me the canary in the coal mine. If she for any length of time was inexplicably upset or depressed or if she suddenly quit her job for seemingly no good reason, then I knew the big one was coming.

That last I heard she and her husband were moving to the Rocky Mountains--something about converting some old mine into a darling home.

Cheers

All alone out here on the far end of a galactic middle nowhere, humanity unknown to any other possible intelligent life, to be squashed like a bug on the cosmic windshield - would suck.
