indeed it would be the most effective hypothesis (but it would make a bad American film; big idiots drilling the rock in the vacuum of space to put a thermonuclear bomb there is much more horny!).

a small pulse very far from Earth deviates the trajectory of a NEO by easily 1 km at Earth level.

you still have to not miss it and do it in advance!

...not to mention that if these near-Earth cruisers have never touched the Earth before — on the grounds that the Earth would obviously never have been in their trajectory — then is it a very good idea to deviate their trajectory? so that one day they really become a threat? — do we really have to play with fire? Not to mention that with their "genius" and their calculators, humans could very well simulate the trajectories of these racing cars, to tell us whether or not they would constitute a real threat in the future and when? Which would seem even more hypothetical than almost 4 billion years without impact. Calculations of n/X real probabilities should be made and not point to a single hypothetical risk.

there were near-Earth cruisers, probably many even during its formation.

there is also the famous 65 million year old that would have extinguished the dinosaurs.

there is some NEO surveillance, but not easy.

there are things after Pluto that don't orbit very cleanly and that, by a somewhat chaotic collision, can suddenly exit into an unpredictable orbit.

I'm not convinced that we can be really effective and no doubt that chance (and especially the immensity of the space vacuum) protects us more than our technology for a long time to come...

for the dinos, "They" let it happen, to allow the arrival of homo sympathicus. : Mrgreen:

So it would be a good idea to continue to develop this technology, right?
They could use the mass of old HS satellites to propel them against?

old satellites often have piloting problems, and/or do not have enough energy (both to move towards the NEO, but also kinetic because they are not heavy enough).

In my opinion, you need one, or even several satellites dedicated to the mission (for example if the first fails...)

all this is far from over...

The Russians will take care of it, with everything that passes over their territories (not the HS in priority).
But it will make debris...
