Yes, nukes(nuclear weapons) can travel up into space to destroy asteroids and huge flying rocks.
Yes but hard to destroy them. Nukes cannot be shot down if they are in space but they can be shot down in the earth.
Asteroids travel through space.
Asteroids.
First you set up the laser beam house, get the nukes ready and than start launching it into space(starts firing at the asteroids). To save or protect the earth you must get ready. Set up all kinds of anti-asteroid weapons and fire at the huge flying rock(asteroid). Shoot lasers at the asteroid from the laser beam house, that will help protect the earth.
The average orbital speed is 17.882 km/s of asteroid in space
Yes but not easy. But the truth is if nukes are already in space there is no way that missiles can stop nukes.
The cast of Nukes in Space - 1999 includes: William Shatner as Narrator
meteoroids
Because there is a good chance they may destroy the planet.
Stars are tremendously larger than asteroids and do not become asteroids.
The sun gives off radiation, which can travel through space, and is later converted into heat when it contacts matter (Earth, space crafts, astronauts, asteroids, ect.).
"In space" is probably too general an answer. In truth, asteroids are all over the solar system. The majority of asteroids travel in a poorly-defined region called the "Asteroid Belt" between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, approximately 4 AU out from the Sun.But there are plenty of asteroids that orbit at other distances as well.
