If NASA Saw an Asteroid Coming, Should They Tell Us?
If NASA announced an asteroid had a real chance of hitting Earth in six months, would you want them to tell the public immediately?
Or should they wait until they knew exactly where it would hit?
That is the question I pinned under my new documentary.
Because asteroid defense gets stranger the deeper you look.
In 2013, the Chelyabinsk meteor exploded over Russia with the force of roughly thirty atomic bombs.
Nobody saw it coming.
No telescope detected it before it arrived.
Now imagine the next one is bigger.
My new dark science documentary breaks down what would actually happen if astronomers discovered an Earth-bound asteroid with only six months of warning.
The first telescope detection.
NASA’s orbit calculations.
The International Asteroid Warning Network.
FEMA planning.
DART.
Apophis.
NEO Surveyor.
And the uncomfortable reality that if warning time is short, the options get extreme very fast.
An asteroid impact may be the only natural disaster humanity can predict and prevent.
But only if we see it in time.
