Also there's this survey that shows we actually would prefer stopping climate change instead of fighting war.

I’m not sure I learned anything new other than I want to play the tabletop game they created.

I haven't had much hope that if there was an major asteroid racing towards earth that there could be much done about it, but I also know that likelyhood of it is very small so there is no need to lose sleep over it.
