    The Official Planetary DOOM thread

    Press Conference: Nov. 30, 2018
    Asteroid’s Chance of Earth Impact in 2027 Now 96%

    https://cneos.jpl.nasa.gov/pd/cs/pdc...2-Briefing.pdf

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ <------ from NASA.GOV!




    Found it by accident - was checking if 13 bits of space will be enough to keep dates (which worked out until 2028), now I can reserve extra bit for other data

    Definitely a topic that needs to leave the realms of science fiction. It's not a question of 'if' but when. We should be considering half our resources on defence half on colonising Mars.
