U.S. researchers have outlined a plan for solar powered space defences which could vaporise an asteroid as big as the one which flew past Earth on Friday night in 60 minutes.
The same system could destroy asteroids 10 times larger in about a year, with evaporation starting at a distance as far away as the Sun, the researchers claim.

but merely to provide an example and evidence in responce to your question insinuating that type of technology did not exist...
You misunderstood.
I did not imply that such tech does not exist (though only one of your examples actually does).

You could be on to something. There was some speculation that there may be an attempt to direct this asteroid into hitting Earth. I wouldn't be surprised if it leaks out later on to have happened.

Saw this thread today. Saw Phage do the usual "try to crush all with my superior reasoning" Vulcan thing. Rolled eyes. Left. Then saw this news story a few hours later;

If they are openly talking about building such a device in a "year" then there is a high probability that they already have these systems up there, we the public only get released this type of technology long after "they" are done with it and now they can sell it as " new technology" to fund more bigger and better black ops weapons / technology.edit on 18-2-2013 by Reevster because: (no reason given)

Humour me here, but if DA14 is being reported as the largest sized known object to pass so close to earth, where does this place Tunguska- is this because we are not fully sure what happened at Tunguska?

That one didn't pass earth.
