Possibilities of Duck and Cover

Did you know, my faithful, endearingly loyal flock, none of whom would nevertheless go down to the corner store and get me dishwashing liquid this morning so I'm having to do it NAKED with no soap at all, (not ME naked, ya stupids, da DISHIS) that there is nothing I could do to protect you from an asteroid about the size of Pessamquot (big) slamming into Earth, eliminating 99.6% of all Terran species extant today and causing an Ice Age that will last 10,000 years?

Now, Flock, do you realise I am 100% not kidding?

Number one, there are only about eight people on earth looking for one of these. Number two, if they somehow saw them, they'd have about 0.08 seconds to warn the cities to all evacuate and take up safe shelter in the surrounding hills. Number three, they'd probably be right under it. It would be the size of Pessamquot, a place I am making up only because you know it is bigger than Manhattan and I didn't want to scare you.

This would make Tsar Bomba look like the effluvium of a water sprite, which is actually very, very small.

Mars, the Moon and all our small accompanying planets in this solar system would cringe, mumbling to themselves "Glad that wasn't me!"

Hey look, if the largest planet in our solar system can suck it up bravely, so can we!

Just lettin' ya know, flock.
