Suspecting that there might be some kind of asteroid larger or smaller than you can hit Earth and thus cause our extinction in Russia have already begun to investigate what solutions we could give this problem assuming we got to catch it early. It seems that science fiction movie, the most viable idea to have arrived in the Central Research Institute of Machine Building, within the Russian Federal Space Agency, is to use nuclear weapons .
However, as has transcended the fundamental idea that the Russians have not precisely to disintegrate the object in space but rather use nuclear weapons of any kind to try to change the trajectory of the asteroid or space object to prevent collisions with the Earth. That, as I said, to get there first detect the object with time and sufficient leeway as this explosion should occur in deep space, far from Earth.
With all this in mind, there be noted that in Russia plan to create a new Federal Space Program that will start this year 2016 and will be fully operational in 2025. The basic idea is to create a Early Warning Center will operate with the help four new observation satellites trajectories of asteroids that must be put into orbit in the coming years. On the other hand, this idea must overcome numerous barriers such as the international treaty signed in 1967 explicitly forbids artifacts and detonate nuclear weapons in space .
