Tests have proven that rockets can be used to deflect dangerous space collisions, but those take time to prepare. Recent drills designed to test the international response to these types of disasters showed that the space <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" title=\"community\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"72058\" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/Community\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">community<\/a> is ill-equipped to deal with these problems on short notice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The concentration of so many potentially dangerous asteroids coming so close to the Earth is alarming, even if none of them are on a path to collide with our planet. Now that scientists can divert these collisions with rockets, it\u2019s more important than ever to monitor them closely. It\u2019s only a matter of time before one of these massive rocks is on a collision course with Earth, but if it\u2019s detected soon enough it\u2019s a disaster we may be able to avoid.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jpl.nasa.gov\/asteroid-watch\/next-five-approaches\/\">NASA<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- #comments -->                <\/p>\n<hr style=\"background-color:#363636;border-width:0;height:2px;line-height:0;text-align:center;width:100%;\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/sci\/multiple-dangerous-asteroids-approaching-earth.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jacob VanGundy | Published 16 seconds ago Several asteroids will pass by Earth in the next few days, some of them getting shockingly close in astronomical terms.
