[QUOTE=Tolyzor;34994527]I wonder how much rock a nuke can turn into powder/vapour. I guess there are two big problems with nuking it though... Firstly, setting a nuke off in space disables, like, all the satellites. And secondly, non of our ICBMs are configured for nuking space rocks, and like their names suggest, are ballistic, so guidance to get one close enough might be a problem. Therefore, there would need to be some serious guidance software and possibly payload design work done before we could nuke it even if we wanted to.[/QUOTE] A while ago, they built a massive rocket in a joint US / Russia program, it is basically a massive fucking nuclear weapon mounted on a mobile launching system that is bigger than my house. It has the power to launch into space.
Don't worry everybody, there's a 75% chance it will hit somewhere in the ocean, and all the force from the impact will... Just don't live on a coastline and you'll be fine.
