Within 10 to 30 years, all the near-earth asteroids will have been charted.

What about the moon-sized asteroid that is flying between stars right now that will pass through this system ten times faster than a near earth asteroid and smash directly into the moon or the earth? They will see it about ten minutes before it hits.

Hmmmmmmmm.
Now, if a Mars sized body hit Venus...
It would blow off enough of the plant to form a lunar sized companion...
Knock enough of the Cytherean atmosphere into space to eliminate the hyper greenhouse effect that bakes Venus...
Venus would cool enough for it to rain...
Oceans would form...
The new moon would drive tides...
