From what I've read, there are no casualties from the Russian Meteorite, only injuries. Hope that this is true and that those affected are able to return to stability as soon as possible.

I purchased Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, yesterday. I've never sat through a Kubrick film and the price point was low enough for me to indulge my curiosity. I won't delve into the specifics but does anybody else feel that it was an overblown affair?

2001 has a select few scenes that would be considered classics... the apes discovering the monolith, the repeated mention of "human error", and of course "Daisy".

It also has another two hours of film.

It is not, in my humble opinion, bad but it certainly fails to live up to the hype.

Here is a side question, the nations of the world have spent a combined $0 on asteroid defense system. Is this a bad thing or just minor problem?

You realize that, so far, "asteroid defense" is science fiction, right?

I think after last week the Russians will change that.

I wouldnt say its necesarily bad, but do we have technolgy available to us thats capable of doing so? How long do we think before we do? Whats the science involved in tracking celestial objects? Alot of questions there, D.

Yeah, but science fiction that many scientists might justify. It is brought by Neil DeGrasse Tyson when he was on PBS News Hour.

Fixed.

But you're not getting my point: as of right now, it's all just science fiction. They may be looking into it, but for right now, it's nonexistant. The closest we got to an "asteroid" defense was research for President Reagan's "Star Wars", but that was for shooting Soviet missiles out of the atmosphere (should they have launched one at us).

No science fiction to it. Putin will rocketpunch those bastards right back to their moms in space next time.
