Asteroid explosion over Indonesia raises fears about Earth's defences

You have to wonder what strikes the sun and takes out a third of it's light. Then the moon and stars also follow suit with a third of their light being taken out.

Nuclear winter could do that easily. It won't strike the sun--nothing can do that--but it will certainly remove a 3rd of the sunlight.

I think it's funny that people even think we had defenses, much less being concerned about them.......

We have no defenses against space junk, people!

I get a chuckle every time I think about this post!

Plus the sun is 93,000,000 miles away. Nuclear winter is a possibility. I don't see how we could shoot something at the sun, haha.

LOL! I'd like to see anyone try.

Yup, these things can come at us and we won't know they were coming until they actually arrive.
