How To Save Humanity? Scientists' Idea Of Blowing Deadly Armageddon Space Rocks Into Pieces!

A group of scientists gathered at the American Geophysical Union summit together with the researchers from NASA's Goddard Spaceflight Center and Los Alamos National Laboratory. These scientists were discussing how to keep the human race in case of a deadly asteroids shower. These people came up with two brilliant ideas.

One of the ideas is to shoot the asteroids to shove into a trajectory away from the Earth. The nuclear missile will blow the threatening space rocks into pieces. Dr. Joseph Nuth of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center said that Earth is vulnerable to large space rocks crashing into Earth. The biggest dilemma is basically people do not care about the proposed situation. The implausible scene would define as Armageddon.

These rouge space rocks are threatening to crash a course with Earth. Bennu is one of the asteroids circling the sun inside the orbit of planet Mars. This space rock is occasionally crossing Earth's orbital path. Scientists are making a research of understanding its composition. In this form, researchers could figure out how to deflect other rocky materials that may hit the orbital course with Earth.

It was stated that 50 to 60 million years apart, the large horde of strong dinosaur were killed because of an asteroid impact. Dr. Nuth said that somewhat planet Earth had a close encounter in 1996 when a comet flew into Jupiter and in 2014 when another comet passed within the cosmic orbital spitting distance of Mars.

The team of scientists led by Dr. Cathy Plesko of Los Alamos National Laboratory recommended using a technique of deflection. Dr. Plesko explained that the method is equated to a giant cannonball. She revealed that cannonball technology is a brilliant way of intercepting an object at high speed actually ends up being more effective than high explosives and it would be a rocket power of saving the humanity from any unwanted space rocks visitors.
