Is there a proposed Asteroid missile defence system for Earth ?
I was just worndering as there are millions of these floating about (admitedy mostly in a safe orbit around the Milkyway's asteroid belt) and millions more actually really far out in the outer reaches of our solar system that take 30 million years to orbit our sun.
And it only takes one of 10-20 miles long to hit us and its a 75% life extinction maker.
I remember the US military doing a demo of a satellite geting destroyed by a missile but can those deliver nuclear warheads large enough to deflect or completely destroy ?
