Comets are they planned bombs for earth as made by human enemies in space?

What is the maximum damage caused by any comet on earth so far?

Do we stay protected from comets in the modern world?

We can also create missiles today with ease against even giant comets.

We don’t have to destroy the whole of it, just bombing it enough so as to change the direction of comet.

Comets are not typically radioactive like the moon. Comets are not planned bombs for Earth, and the maximum damage caused by a comet on Earth so far is unknown. We do stay protected from comets in the modern world, as there are systems in place to detect and track them. It is not possible to create missiles to change the direction of a comet, as comets are too large and distant to be affected by such a weapon.

What is the maximum damage a comet can cause? Does the moon directs comets to earth? I would be suspicious of even comets when as you said they cause —- damage— .


See if you change the — Shape —- of an object. You change the speed of that object as well as direction of that object. A country Huge in area say in Asia can be completely broken by just a very small missile. Missile need not be as huge as comet to destroy it. We can take radioactive element from moon or Mars and create nukes in space ( as it can be unsafe to carry from earth) and I think of the size of a goat is enough to destroy the size of the moon. 

I think we need a small missile of human height to destroy complete moon. It is more easy than it appears to be. NASA might end moon in 1 day by a small missile made for the purpose.

Distance won’t be a problem for we are here aiming to target the comets which are coming close to earth.

I think if we use missile - uranium, thorium will burn out to cause more radiations. We should therefore first remove radioactive top layers and then use missile.

No, comets are not typically radioactive like the moon. Comets are made up of ice, dust and rocky material, and are not known to emit significant amounts of radiation. 

However, it's important to note that comets can be influenced by the solar wind and radiation from the Sun, which can cause changes in their appearance and behavior.
