"Asteroid Day is a global awareness movement where people from around the world come together to learn about asteroids and what we can do to protect our planet, our families, communities, and future generations. Asteroid Day will be held on the anniversary of the 1908 Siberian Tunguska event, the largest asteroid impact on Earth in recent history. You can now sign the 100x Declaration yourself, right here."

Only ONE topic without even a single reply? The community should be ashamed!

@KerbalSpaceP tweeted several times about Asteroid Day and SQUAD did not even post anything about it on their OWN forum? FAIL!

I signed the petition and so should you. https://www.change.org/p/help-make-the-100x-acceleration-of-the-discovery-and-tracking-of-near-earth-asteroids-real I don't want to be pessimistic but your future may very well depend on it.

Also watch this Scott Manley video. Use your smartphone or tablet for best results.

I think this might have actually been better off in Science Labs. Could ask a mod to be sure though, but I don't see any reason why this shoudn't be posted there.

Yes, the video was fantastic, all this about asteroids is very fascinating!
