 @69368ddd <<Meanwhile, 60% think that scanning the skies for killer asteroids is important>>... that's depressing knowing the probability of a devastating impact is so low! 
 @5a52e09d @2cc0ef82 I totally missed that. I think it is important to do that. I also think that it is a non sequitur because the total global amount of money spent on cataloging solar system objects, including NEOs that may impact us, isn't even the cost of one NASA small unmanned space mission much less billions per year and up for missions to moon/Mars much less living there full time.
