They're out there

A program of amateur astronomers looking for potentially catastrophic Near-Earth Objects (that would the kind that might eventually give the Earth a hard smack), has found one. I have no doubt that there are more to be found. I wish the governments of the world would do two things; one, deal creditably with climate change, and two, come up with an actual plan to deal with a dangerous rogue asteroid. Ah, if I was POTW (President of the World), things would get DONE.
