Significanly greater than 1 in 700,000.
In other words the last thing people are more ways to blow really big things up.

Very slim. The best methods to keep large objects from hitting us don't involve blowing them up. Blowing them up would just create lots of smaller impacts, the gross effect of which would be just as bad as the larger single impact. The best techniques being proposed involve attaching rockets or other propulsion systems to the object to move the object out of the way. No technology there that we haven't already been using for 50 years. See the
