Glad to hear. As crazy as it sounds, I believe that the biggest apology we can give to the planet's inhabitants is using our creations to shield Earth from a potentially catastrophic asteroid that could wipe out vast amounts of life.
Yes, this "repayment" to Earth's biosphere is dulled by the fact that we created weapons decades ago that could wipe out more life than a relatively small asteroid could, but developing and fine tuning these redirection methods is the least we could do to protect this planet's life.
