Surely NASA or some observatory would see it coming? Surely?
If NASA was absolutely sure we were going to be hit, I think they would keep it secret until about a day before the impact. Let's face it, if they announnced it 6 months in advance, the whole world would turn into complete chaos. There would be no law, no order, probably no food or fuel. There's no reason to announce it way in advance of the event. Now 24 hours notice, that would be good. Spend time with family and friends, prepare a little (as if it's really going to help) and get ready for the light show. Afterall 6 months of worry isn't going to change a thing in the final outcome.
