Yes, exactly. That why I always get amused at these movies that have some
giant metor heading for Earth and they want to blow it up. Just make things
worse, with a lot of smaller but still deadly metors coming down. Anyone
ever think of just attaching a rocket to it and firing it just enough to
change it course.
