I’m an expert. I have seen Armageddon many, many times. What would you like to know?

Why the fuck would you watch that movie more than once?

One satelite watching all of space ?

Duh, it would have antennas on both sides so it could see in either direction.

Are you an expert? Because these are the types of answers I’m curious about. If we had a satellite in deep space that detected an asteroid, could it a) relay the info to us quick enough, b) could we do maths well enough to determine where it would hit, and c) have enough time left to evacuate a city.

 

 

b) and c) should be blow it up or push it sideways so it will miss.

AN ocean hit is actually very bad. If enough water vapor is pushed into the atmosphere, you end up with 4-5 years of global cooling, which kills most of the crops and then about 50 years of slow global temperature rise until the oceans boil. Basically turns the planet into Venus. 

OK, Debbie Downer.

Why the temperature rise?

It would have to be a lot bigger than that one to do anything close to that level of effect. It would need to be "dinosaurs" level bad or damn close to it.

This would have happened already then.

All the water vapor?

Water vapor already represents 80-90% of the atmospheric greenhouse gas.  GHGs have a diminishing effect as you continue loading them into the atmosphere.  Water vapor also has a very short residence time as an atmospheric gas.  It shouldn’t cause a positive feedback.   I’d be more worried about tsunamis
