NASA warns Earth left vulnerable as asteroid protection is ‘NOWHERE NEAR’ what we need

NASA has warned the Earth has been left vulnerable as protection levels against asteroids hitting us are “nowhere near what we need”.

The space agency has established a Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO) which is working on ways to protect the world from asteroids.

However, from analysing its Fireball and Bolide Reports system, NASA still has no idea as to where is the most likely place that an asteroid will hit Earth, which leaves us vulnerable.

Without a discernible pattern of where asteroids hit, NASA and other space agencies around the globe have little way of preparing.

However, William Cooke of the Meteoroid Environment Office at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center has warned that there is almost a third of a chance that it could hit land, which could have catastrophic repercussions.

He told Inverse: "Just over 70 per cent of Earth's surface is ocean, which means about 70 per cent of the impactors will land in water.”
