0NASA says an asteroid larger than the Empire State Building is heading toward Earth. But don't worry, it's not expected to arrive until the year 2182 and there's only a .05% chance it will hit our planet.
It's important to understand this hazard in general, as well as what we might be able to do when an asteroid ultimately is going to collide with the Earth -- because it's happened many times before throughout geologic history.
The good news is, scientists have been working on one of the solutions. It involves sending something into space to deter the asteroid.
