US government signs a bill to save the planet... from asteroids?
Here we are thinking that carbon emissions, oil spills and global warming will destroy the planet, but the US government knows better. Apparently, the priority is giant asteroids, in true Armageddon style.The US House of Representatives just passed bill H.R. 6063, which directs NASA to develop plans for creating an inexpensive mission (is that even possible with NASA?) to the Apophis asteroid to attach a tracking device. Apophis is projected to come dangerously-close to Earth in 2029, according to researchers. In addition, this bill requires the Director of the White House's Office of Science and Technology Policy to come up with a procedure for notifying Federal agencies and other emergency response groups of any other space objects with a collision course for Earth. I just hope Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck are still around to save us in 2029.
