Re: Sky survey lowers estimate of asteroid impact risk
Well, it's nice that they finally got involved.
What I got from article was that they established the correct ratio between larger rocks and smaller rocks- but I didn't actually see this number stated. They seemed to place a higher value on main belt and almost discounted the Earth crossers. The great unknown is the smaller rocks which this doesn't address. I would predict this might cause a stir among the small community which is interested in this threat to our planet, but not sure it's adding any useful information.
