"Slim chance." I like how everyone seems to be downplaying these odds, despite them being updated to a 1 in 43 chance. People will happily continue buying lottery tickets with 1 in 6,991,908 odds and think nothing of wasting their hard-earned savings on betting websites—but a civilisation-crushing asteroid? Pffft… nothing. Just another reminder for humanity to get its priorities straight. image
