        They really spend money on that? I always thought our asteroid defense was Bruce Willis riding a nuke into one 😉

        WTF?? Why are we WASTING millions of taxpayers dollars on some "asteroid defense" project when it's clear this would fall under the jurisdiction of the new #SpaceForce?🚀 #InfinityAndBeyond!

        I wonder whether this program seeks only to protect the US, so that diverting the impact onto, say, North Korea would count as success.
