Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for December 02, 2018

maybe we can get those little umbrellas that Wile E Coyote used

By late 22nd century, we should have warp drive, or something else fast. That would make this project fairly useless.

Go ahead and hit us, ya big dumb rock!

Uh but they’re so spaced out, Be-be-bennu and the Rex.

Hey look, it’s BennNOOOOOOOOO…!

I’ve learned the probe won’t actually land on the surface, but will extend its arm and tap the surface to raise the dust and then draw in samples of the dust for analysis. Maybe they’d better watch out what side they bump the asteroid lest they change its trajectory toward Earth.

So, Tim, are you trying to imply that Bennu’s got it out for the Empire State Building?

An almost subtle hint about Pluto.

Let’s join the metric revolution…

I’m a dinosaur, and I’m telling you humans – these asteroids are nothing to joke about.

Who knew? Bennu! O<|];o)

Sorry, I must’ve dozed off reading all the text…is that the next alien race, the Bennus?Seriously, I loved the astronomy lesson. Thanks!

What does “Bennu” mean to Mike Puzio? Why did he choose that name?

Hey 3 steps: don’t see you at LUANN any more. Wassup?

Oh No! Now you have started a new consistency theory about the end of the world.

I never knew we did asteroid biopsies…er, geopsies…er, asteropsies…

Bennu has a higher than 1/2700 chance to whack the earth..
