I love how Osiris just shot a package at us then went on its way to another mission. It's amazing how just over a hundred years ago, we were just beginning to fly via the first prototype aircrafts.
-
Well done! It's nice to watch a reasoned discussion of a potential asteroid impact rather than the sensationalist click-bait you typically see.
-
Excellent treatment of the material. I've been following this topic for half a century, since I was a child, and it's exciting to see the developments in knowledge, detection and potential options for dealing with this threat. Thanks for resisting the temptations of shallow content and clickbaity titles! I'm subbed and I'll be looking forward to more videos like this one.
-
wow this Osiris mission is certainly getting some work done, well done to the team behind it!
-
Superb mini documentary on this important subject. Well done!. It is reassuring to know that serious work is being done to try and mitigate such disasters.
-
OSIRIS ftw. Fascinating topic and great content. Thank you Dr. Miles.
-
What an interesting and informative video. Thanks for sharing! Only could get through about half the video before I had to stop to like and subscribe.
-
Very informative and well produced. I appreciate that you didn't linger on widely known facts and yet included enough to inform the novice. An enjoyable journey (considering the subject) I look forward to your future endeavors. You have another subscriber. (Oh, lose the big red arrows. Tacky.)
-
Great video, really like the informative pacing, kept me engaged the entire video.
-
Now this is a cool video. Thanks for sharing!
-
Incredible content. I doff my hat to you, sir. I was afraid this was clickbait, but I was delighted to see the detail, realism and well researched content you presented. If only others on YT would be half as good as you.
-
Very engaging, and thank you for inspiring so many people across the world with scientific temper.
-
Incredibly well put together and composed video! Great visuals… I assumed this would have a few hundred thousand views by now… Great stuff!
-
I wonder what our technology will be like in 30-40 years from now. Which is pretty much the time I have left. Unless I somehow make it into my mid 80s. Which I doubt, unless I make changes to my lifestyle. I hope there's a technological leap during that time. Probably not as great but similar to the kind my parents have experienced. They were born in the 1950s.

Wow, first time seeing this channel & I loved this video, everything well explained w/out hysteria & very thorough.(Also made me glad I'm old & don't have to worry about Bennu!) Looking forward to combing thru recent videos in search of better understanding all the weirdness of the universe!

i truly enjoyed this clip - its just really scary when you realize that earth is a not-so-large target in a shooting gallery where the trajectories of objects are dictated in both circular and straight-line principles. Its reasonable that nothing could be More than 100% spot on but dude, if i ever could... 11/10 for this discussion 🙂
-
Very excellent video 📸👏 many thanks for making it and sharing it.
-

Very informative. Thank you for making the video.

The fact that people were more likely to be near windows during this event is tragic... Anything can happen, make the best of every day!
