I still remember Armageddon intro: "It happen before and will happen again. It's just a question of when?"

  Yeah. True then, and true now. You could say the same about pandemics. People have warned - but nothing really happens until the threat is imminent.

    There's some fun stuff we could be doing re the asteroids. Maybe send a mission up to deflect a non threatening one to check the tech works. If Musk's starship gets working that could provide a platform to lug some asteroid deflecting tech into orbit.
