On Efficiency of Methods of Protecting the Earth Against Asteroids


ABSTRACT

Contemporary research publications worldwide studying the danger arising from celestial bodies crossing the Earth orbit are considered. Probability of collision of asteroids with the Earth is suggested to estimate using the Turin scale. Methods of protection of the Earth against danger of asteroids are considered and their efficiency is assessed. Conclusion concerning perspective of preventing a space-scale catastrophe by means of radar observations of small planets as a direction of protection, and also of necessity of further improving systems of the Earth protection are made.
