Some very interesting space posts you have here. Cool.👍
You might know more about this than me (I haven't fully looked into it yet) but I think NASA will soon be launching a mission (unmanned) to an asteroid to see if they can change its path, its trajectory. Which is actually super important really, because asteroids do in fact pose a very real threat to the planet should a big one impact the Earth. And they do every so often. 🤔

Thank you @
mote.of.soul - I had no idea about the asteroid issue. Yikes!
I usually get emails from the NASA website, but I forgot that they have other events coming up. I should try to post them here. I realized just now that I don't get all the emails - just certain ones. My apologies if I missed posting an event.
I watched the last one. I want to see the landing of the previous one, but I think I missed it. I just realized that they are naming each crew in succession - so Crew 3 was the one that I announced, but I think Crew 2 returned to Earth already.
I always wondered about asteroids and its potential dangers to Earth.
Thank you for replying here and for the info!
