If it misses, we should seriously study the feasibility of being able to push it into a collision. That would create a bunch of tech, and scientific knowledge. And it would totally rock.

Would take a while to calculate its trajectory after the gravity of mars influences its path. It may never pass it again.

Well, technically speaking, it might only partially rock. Some asteroids are mostly iron.

Better steel yourself for the collision if you stear us wrong, lest we cow in fear and dread of the impact.

Speaking of which, would the EPA require an environmental impact statement for this crater?
