Getting ready for Apophis
Well, it looks like some at NASA are taking Apophis seriously. They are requesting abstracts on deflection techniques from the experts, with a deadline for submission on May 26. White papers on selected abstracts will be due on June 25. Someone is taking the NEO threat seriously. I don't know if the timing of these efforts is coincidental given the threat posed by Apophis. And it really shouldn't matter. I commend any effort to prepare for a threat. We need a sound plan that we can move into action at a moments notice.
