Clearly They're Not Paying Attention

Russia wants to go all Deep Impact on an Asteroid that's headed right for us. Only, it's not going to hit us. NASA has the object's best shot at Earth being a 1-in-250,000 chance on it's 2032 approach. And besides, all of this happens after the Earth ends in 2012, in a hail of Mayan/Antichrist hellfire. Pay attention, Russia! Damn.

Best line in the article comes from the director of the Russian space agency Anatoly Perminov, stating what he says he heard from one of his scientists, "I don't remember exactly, but it seems to me it could hit the Earth by 2032."

Why do I have a feeling that if we do survive Mayan Deathfest 2012, the Russians are just going to knock this asteroid into us on accident?
