Should we be concerned?

When everyone saw Armageddon we all thought it was a nice movie, but improbable in reality. What if the Meteor is really coming? How much time and money should we be putting into research for defense against random meteor impacts. A house sized me

I think that nay cinema concerning the issue has fictionalized the situation in the public's eyes.

I feel that we should do whatever is needed to prevent such an event, if it is to happen. There was the Tagunskan event in Russian during the early 1900's where a whole section of Siberia was blasted by a house sized meteor.

But the meteor was an even mixture of ice and rock so it broke up a lot right before impact preventing disaster worldwide. .
