Man, anything that big hitting pretty much anywhere would screw up EVERYONE.

And there are a lot of good museums in DC...Got to move them out to Kansas or somewhere...

As an astronomer I can tell you that the threat is very real. How humanity has made it this far is amazing. Everyday we face global cataclysms on a massive scale, most of these threats come from space. We have only scratched the surface on asteroids and comets, nearly everyday there is some undocumented object found. NASA has been funding massive amounts of money on the NEO (Near Earth Object) project and has built many many RRRT's (Rapid Response Remote Telescopes) to help in finding objects, and responding to gamma ray burst, and close to earth super nova's. There is a planet killer that has been named 99942 Apophis (A-pof-is) That may be a major threat in the next 20 years. Although the trajectory calculations are looking better, any gravitation force can change the orbital path and throw our trajectory charts out of the window. Something to keep in mind when preparing is that when the SHTF it may not always be the human element that starts the downward spiral. But you better believe that the people that have not prepared and others will be close to capitalize on the situation.

Well then, Stan: It's up to you to find these things, with enough warning that humanity (which, of course, means the Untied States of America) can do something about it.

For a long time I had a NASA artist's depiction of a (very large) asteroid hitting the earth as my my wallpaper on the computer. Quite the image.

In the bible, an asteriod named Wormwood was to strike the world and wide out 1/4 of it.
