Would that be the end of life on Earth right down to the bacterial/microbial level? How big was the meteor/asteroid which wiped out the dinosaurs? What would happen if a Texas-sized asteroid hit Earth tomorrow?
I remember a few years back reading about how an object around that size passed between the Earth and the moon. Earth WILL be hit by an extinction-sized meteor/asteroid/comet someday. It has happened several times before, and there is a 100% chance that it's going to happen again.
Probably not within any of our lifetimes, but it will eventually. Personally, I say the world will end far before anything like that can happen. Probably through all-out nuclear war or through some apocalypse disease pandemic.
Does the government or NASA have any secret contingency plan to stop an asteroid from utterly obliterating Earth?

Do you think that life on Earth would sprout back into existence millions of years after that fateful impact?
