Re:Do they even know what a megaton is? (Score 1)

Okay, but I think you're missing my point. This is NASA we're talking about, and they seem to be tossing numbers out there without really looking too much into it. That really concerns me when they would release information which is bound to scare some people into thinking a meteor is going to kill all life on earth, and in the same report make a comment about a comparable size nuclear blast without really knowing what they are talking about. If they just made up that 20,000 megaton number thinking nobody would pay attention, how are we supposed to believe that anything else in the report has any merit?
