Asteroid Alert: Earth Will '100 Per Cent Be Hit' By Killer Space Rock, Says Scientist


These days you must be hearing lot about asteroids. Asteroids (space rocks) are small, rocky objects that orbit the Sun. Although asteroids orbit the Sun like planets, they are much smaller than planets. You must be aware that asteroids, if hit Earth, can bring massive destruction to our planet and also to human life. The effects of an asteroid strike including tsunamis, shock waves and flattening winds, could be catastrophic. Asteroids can approach towards the Earth due to the gravitational forces that affect them. It is said that Earth will reach to its end one day and one of the possible reason for this could be an asteroid. Well, an asteroid expert has claimed it is inevitable a devastating collision between Earth and a space rock will happen in the future. Yes, you read it right.  
According to an exclusive report published by NBC, Space group B612’s President Danica Remy has claimed that the risk to Earth from asteroids is very small in the short-term but inevitable in the long-term. “It’s 100 per cent certain that we’re going to get hit, but we’re not 100 per cent certain when,” NBC quoted her as saying. Remy also claimed for the first time in human history that there is now the technology to help solve the problem.
