It's theoretically possible to do this, although it's obviously untested. There's still a 96% chance that the asteroid just whizzes right past the moon without causing any problems. So we're going to have to monitor this and revise our calculations on a fairly regular basis because we're going to need time in order to get things ready to make a launch. In a launch that will be no later than 2029, 2031, so we've got to monitor it before it gets too close because by that point of launch it's not going to be effective. Now this is EHE CACS, this is in the Science and Tech. We're just going to raise the side of the ribbon here and I guess I'll just see if there are any stations out there like the Joys where we head off here this evening or any comments come on in and then I guess we'll tie the ribbon for tonight.
