Asteroid Hunters - KQED QUEST

- Everyone knows that eight planets orbit the Sun. But thousands of other objects, including icy comets and football field-sized asteroids, are also zooming around our solar system. And some of them could be on a collision course with Earth. QUEST explores how these Near Earth Objects are being tracked and what scientists are saying should be done to prevent a deadly impact.

They can afford a huge reflective telescope worth millions of dollars, but they can't afford an LCD/LED monitor.
I used to watch this when I was 2 months old
i love that idea, chrdann
The gravity tractor's advangage is that the asteroid can still be rotating.
But, weighing 1/10,000th or less than the asteroid, I don't think it would
be effective.
Soft-landing a rocket would be more effective but would need lots of fuel.
Low thrust ion engines that thrust for months at high efficiency.
If the asteroid rotated once a minute, the thruster could fire once a minute
for 15 seconds each time it faced the proper direction.
Lasers crater the surface, the vapor become reaction jets.
Are you in cahoots with Joey Petroni and his asteroids sales?

if designed such a thing to deflect an asteroid course,be better than nothing,can worrying about the policing of such machinery afterwards:)
look at 2:58 as the asteroid turns you can see a face at the front, i thought of the freaky brother in Basket Case!
2:58 ?
Rip us 🪦
