      But when 12.5 percent of the planets of the solar system commits 100% of the violence…

        The (solar) system leaves them no other way of life! We need to make opportunities for them to orbit a stable planet and become moons.

      But?

    Which would also stop the asteroid hitting us as it’d move itself off track

      Or further on course…

        If it shoots towards us it will therfore move away from us

      Missiles don’t have that amount of kickback unlike guns since their propulsion comes gradually and from themselves.

        A bullet has roughly the kinetic energy of a punch

        Surely a missile launch would be far higher due to the mass

    Historical revisionism at work:

    The probability of an asteroid firing in very low, but never zero.

    • Comment105@lemm.ee ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      That’s not true. The probability of an asteroid firing is actually very high, but they’re very inaccurate.

    The American military industrial complex is salivating right now

    • Semjaza@lemmynsfw.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Why now?

      The US military already has satellites than can drop artificial asteroids onto Earth, causing large localised, hard to detect and prevent damage.

      Space has sadly already been weaponised.

        Not officially, so one wonders how you got this info?

        I mean, ICBMs are basically this, just unlaunched, but I doubt that’s your point.

    At last an Onion article that makes me smile instead of weep for the state of politics being so bad that complete and utter batshit crazy nonsense is so hard to tell from news these days.

    If an asteroid fires a missile and it enters the atmosphere, is the rest of the asteroid considered a meteor?
