Since 2001, 26 atomic-bomb-scale explosions have occurred in remote locations around the world, far from populated areas, made evident by a nuclear weapons test warning network. In a recent press release B612 Foundation CEO Ed Lu states:
"This network has detected 26 multi-kiloton explosions since 2001, all of which are due to asteroid impacts. It shows that asteroid impacts are NOT rare - but actually 3-10 times more common than we previously thought. The fact that none of these asteroid impacts shown in the video was detected in advance is proof that the only thing preventing a catastrophe from a 'city-killer' sized asteroid is blind luck. The goal of the B612 Sentinel mission is to find and track asteroids decades before they hit Earth, allowing us to easily deflect them."The B612 Foundation is partnered with Ball Aerospace to build the Sentinel Infrared Space Telescope Mission.
Once positioned in solar orbit closer to the Sun from Earth, Sentinel will look outwards in infrared to detect hundreds of thousands of as-yet unknown near-Earth objects over 140 meters in size. The privately-funded spacecraft is slated to launch in 2017-18 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.
In addition to Lu, Space Shuttle astronaut Tom Jones and Apollo 8 astronaut Bill Anders will be speaking at the event, titled "Saving the Earth by Keeping Big Asteroids Away."
The event will be held at 6 p.m. PDT at the Museum of Flight in Seattle, WA. It is free to the public and the visualization will be made available online on the B612 Foundation website.
Saving the Earth by Keeping Big Asteroids Away?.
Bruce Willis and his crew available to do this? And as far as "blind luck", I agree that most of us are blind, but I'm not so convinced of the "luck" part.
There was a National Press Club Disclosure Conference back in 2010, where military witnesses detailed their experiences with UFO's visiting, shutting down, and disabling US nuclear missile sites. If you haven't seen it, here's a link. Watch the first 10 minutes, and you'll watch the rest. These guys are as credible as any UFO witnesses I have ever seen. If we think we will be setting off nuclear missiles in space to deflect asteroids, well, we might want to think again.
