again attempt best deep doubt figure hit impact latest order planet potential prevent sure understand unless
Without a doubt our planet will be hit again many times in the future, unless we can prevent it from happening. We're not sure yet what the best way to do this is, but in order to figure that out, we've really got to better understand what comets and asteroids are made of and how they're put together.

defense guys hard sound
I don't know if we (the defense) have any expectations. We just want to go out there, play our defense, play hard and play sound football. I don't think there are expectations. That's for you guys (the media). That's not for us. We just go out there and do what we do.

In a purely technical sense, each species of higher organism-beetle, moss, and so forth, is richer in information than a Caravaggio painting, Mozart symphony, or any other great work of art.
