Those guys at NASA are budgetary wizards. There was the press release earlier in the week about how funds would not be available to undertake the search for 'Planet Killer' asteroids. The Planet Killer project has been mandated by Congress and has a deadline. However NASA is structuring the money that Congress proposed to give NASA in such a way that there will not be available funding for this project. After stating that funding is not available, NASA seems to be making a public appeal through the press for the continuation of this project.

The latest news is from a '4 Day meeting' to discuss the calculations regarding the probability that an asteroid could actually 'kill' earth. They found the Planet Killer scenario is unlikely, however, they calculate that the odds of an entire city being destroyed by an asteroid is feasible. As such they are moving away from Congress' original reactionary mandate and appealing to more reasonable minds.
