Although the probability of collision of NEOs with the Earth is very low, they represent a potential threat to the planet.

They met to discuss the implications of a comet asteroid impact and its effect on human society.

They take it for a little while, but when they try to leave, bang!, the hammer comes down, and they discover they're enslaved.

In other words, a few rocks in the South China Sea have put China between a rock and a hard place.

In the course of the work, a software package has been developed to simulate a possible impact hazard and to determine an optimal deflection strategy.

The caretaker Government later established committees to investigate both the helicopter crash and the violence.

It's big, it's heavy. You can't carry it away, so you bang it with your hammer, and you break off a piece.

Only Ranger 4 reached the Moon in an uncontrolled crash impact on the far side of the Moon.

Sledgehammer is but the most recent coup plot to be uncovered, going back to 2003.

The DPJ is caught between a rock and a hard place, and Kan s premiership will surely reach a stalemate.

The shape of its head with a long bill and crest at the back is reminiscent of a hammer, hence its name.

(a) To identify advantages and define a solid rationale for the utilization of space missions to assess the NEO impact hazard.

So you can change the intensity, the frequency, the duration, the pulse shape of the ultrasound to create anything from an airbrush to a hammer.

The silvertips are the one with the white edges on the fin, and there're also gray reef sharks and some hammerheads off in the distance.

Loss of motor function results in dorsiflexion, contractures of the toes, loss of the interosseous muscle function that leads to contraction of the digits, so called hammer toes.

In Europe, a large number of activities in the field of NEO impact risk assessment has been initiated by academics, but few by institutions.

I also searched on this story for the elusive great hammerhead, an animal that really hadn't been photographed much until maybe about seven or 10 years ago.

In fact, it had got to the point where I raised the gavel and was going to bring it down because there was complete silence, and I assumed that we had made it.

Impacts of very large, multi kilometre NEOs have in the past been overwhelmingly catastrophic, but are, fortunately, extremely rare.

Space borne instruments are the best and often the only means of obtaining such data, which are essential for the assessment of the consequences of an impact and the countermeasures that could be taken to prevent it.

(c) To revise and update the scientific priorities for NEO hazard assessment mission concepts entirely in terms of their value in reducing the risk of impact by NEOs and not by the value of the results to pure science

(c) Of the six missions reviewed, NEOMAP recommended that ESA give the highest priority to the Don Quijote concept as the basis for its participation in NEO impact risk assessment and reduction.

The implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement was put to a severe test when the First Vice President, John Garang, died on 30 July in a helicopter crash near New Cush, southern Sudan.

Sledgehammer is, sad to say, yet another alleged coup plot in a series of attempts to topple the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), which was first elected in 2002.

Markets noticed that the euro seemed caught between a rock (the EFSF s limited borrowing capacity) and a hard place (the European Central Bank s great reluctance to engage in large scale purchases of financially troubled governments bonds).

The consequences of NEO impacts can be very severe, but a great deal can be done to prevent some of the impacts entirely and to reduce significantly the damage caused by others, provided timely actions are taken.

ANKARA The exposure of the plan hatched by senior military officials called Operation Sledgehammer to destabilize Turkey s government, and the subsequent arrest of high ranking officers, demonstrates the growing strength of Turkey s democracy.

Moreover, prosecutors efforts to uncover the truth are not a campaign to discredit the Turkish army, as some allege nor has the exposure of Sledgehammer led to an emerging showdown between secularists and Islamists.

Domestically, too, the nine dotted line may cause problems for the government by presenting critics with a useful weapon. Any hint of compromise will expose officials politically.

World Trade Center controlled demolition theories contend that the collapse of the World Trade Center was not solely caused by the airliner crash damage that occurred as part of the September 11, 2001 attacks, and the resulting fire damage, but by explosives installed in the buildings in advance.

But if you live in a vacuum, if you live on the surface of one of these objects, say, in the Kuiper Belt, this an object like Pluto, or one of the smaller objects in the neighborhood of Pluto, and you happened if you're living on the surface there, and you get knocked off the surface by a collision, then it doesn't change anything all that much.
