Also, the moon would make a pretty good jumping off point from a facility there to do just what is asked.

a lunar battle station?
i like it. doubles as an anti-alien invasion base (just to calm down the weirdos). just hook the moon up with all the nukes we can find!!!
but we would have to have some we-are-the-world space crew so nobody feels like a bomb is about to get dropped on 'em.
i can't believe anybody is even worried about asteriods. that would be fun to watch until it hit!! haha, but seriously with how unpredictable space is (and uh...how we know probably one-trillionth of all there is to know about space) if there were an asteriod coming i doubt we would know in time to do anything about it.
my top 5 best space annihilations:
5. reality splitting
4. when the sun explodes
3. an asteriod collision
2. an alien attack
1. being sucked into a black hole.
