Can We Prevent an Asteroid From Hitting Earth?

Space is vast and filled with cosmic debris. Some of the remnants left over from the early formation of our solar system about 4.6 billion years ago are rocky formation known as asteroids.

Brian Cox, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye and others share their opinions about asteroids and what we can do to prevent one from colliding with Earth.

Nasa’s DART mission will be the first demonstration of the kinetic impactor technique to change the motion of an asteroid in space.

But what would happen if an Asteroid were to be heading towards the Earth? What would we do about it? How would we detect it? But most importantly, would we be able to stop it?
