The links above the video were provided by Dan Savage, Lucy Steigerwald, Jesse Walker, Mistress Matisse, Mark Bennett, and Popehat, in that order.

Asteroids are part of the asteroid belt (unless they get byumped out of orbit) between Mars and Jupiter and we might well be aware of those…But that’s not the only thing (or even the most likely thing) that can bash into us.
