Could a nuclear blast deflect an asteroid? The answer depends on the asteroid
An asteroid’s uneven shape could strongly affect a nuclear deflection attempt. Sandia simulations show why choosing the right ...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers are developing three-dimensional simulations to examine how a nuclear device could be used to deflect or potentially disrupt an asteroid ...
Sci-fi correctly guessed the nuclear option, but it overlooked the depth. When a rogue asteroid hurtles toward Earth on short notice, gentle gravitational nudges and kinetic bumps won’t save the day.
