    According to the source:Britain is at risk from an asteroid tsunami which could kill hundreds of thousands of people living in coastal regions, scientists have warned.

    Experts at the University of Southampton have developed software which predicts the impact ‘corridors’ of known asteroids and calculates the risk to communities if they struck.

    Although the UK is not directly under an asteroid path, it is at risk from impacts in the Atlantic Ocean and North Sea which could trigger devastating tsunamis. For example there is a one in 10,000 chance that a space rock could hit just off the coast of Norfolk within the next 85 years.

    PhD student Clemens Rumpf who developed the software – called Armor - is hoping it will help organisations like the United Nations decide whether to evacuate communities or send spacecraft to intercept deadly objects.

    Provided with high and advanced technologies and scientists research, I believe there'll be warnings before these asteroids hit on the earth's ground. Because of that they can warn people who will be affected to evacuate to a safer place. They can even break them into pieces so that when these asteroids strike the earth they will disappear like dust when they pass through the atmosphere layer.

    We can rebuild the city but not restore the human life.

    Oh very disturbing news. I hope the British government will finally wake up to the danger and evacuate the people living near the coast to higher ground. There is no time to waste. This disaster might happen any time. It's time to take action.

    Right. By just looking the picture you can't imagine how massively-destructive it is.
