Assuming we'd be considering this, it'd be safe to say there's a pretty good reason, i.e. an asteroid is on a collision course with Earth. If the dinosaurs were around to ask, they'd tell you that doesn't end well. So instead, we asked Bill Nye "The Science Guy" that exact question. So join Peter, Richard and Bill Nye as they discuss blowing up asteroids and a whole host of other things this week on "What If Discussed".
