An Asteroid Could Hit the Ocean
Johnson’s research suggests that there is one silver lining to an asteroid hitting the Earth. Since the planet is 71 percent water, an asteroid about the size of several football fields would most likely crash into the ocean. However, he’s not the kind of scientist to deal in chances or rely on hope that everything will be okay. There are too many potential scenarios that could bring about the end of the world and it’s his job to study all hypotheses, like the New York City scenario.
