Realistically speaking, could we mitigate an asteroid crashing into our planet? I realized this scenario has been done in many movies but it's always some hyper unrealistic story.

only real way would be in a deep underground bunker but that would only work for a very small asteroid.
btw there is a comet heading straight for earth while we shitpost right now

plz tell me it isnt going to take decades to hit, i want to die now!
All we need to do is eat the bugs.
Asteroid of that size? no way
It depends how early you got to it.
Just impacting it with a probe years ahead of time would be enough for it to miss Earth. For short term just detonating a nuke on the right side of it would unironically work
>missed by a billion miles
fuck off when do i get to die?
The Bogdanoffs may be dead but their quantum immortality curse lives on.
Yes, by not only using our entire nuclear arsenal, but also by creating about 10,000 more thermonuclear hydrogen bombs, and sending them all to the comet.
That many impacts would send it off course, enough to miss the Earth. Would take like 10-20 years though at a minimum. If we’re too late, then we’re all fucked.
