Perhaps it's better to let some smaller pieces impact the Earth. We can study them, we might find something that we don't know and study it.

Ok. I just wanted to hear your thoughts on this idea.

Rocket that travels into space will deplete its oxygen reserves so we won't be able to send it that far away. Lasers have bigger range and can be sent to bigger distances, we just need energy. With lasers, we can strike meteors when it is farther away thus preventing any unneccesary debris.

Nuclear bombs can pollute our athmosphere, and nuclear bombs can't be used outside of Earth's athmosphere.

What if the asteroid is big enough that nuclear bombs cannot save us?

You are thinking wrong. I want to discuss this with everyone,

So the problem is all about obtaining and storing energy?

Is it possible to turn gas in the laser into plasma by heating?

I think it is more important to save the Earth than to save money.

If we advance enough, we might be able to store energy. I know we will not be able to keep it forever, but we might be able to make the energy circulate and we might be able to harvest solar energy using panels and store them or use nuclear energy.

Hello all. I am new here. I have an idea about defending the Earth from meteors using laser beams. I thought about using chemical lasers to burn the meteors. The first phase is that we use gas lasers if possible to create plasma by heating the gas and to use that plasma beam to strike at the...
