Question -

Immediate action was needed, the scientists decided. Give one example each of ‘defensive’ and ‘offensive’ action mentioned in the text.



Answer -

The ‘defensive’ measures dismissed by the experts was to live in underground bunkers as it was not a practical proposition. The ‘offensive’ action was to marginally deflect Comet Dutta from its path by giving it a push. This could possibly be achieved by placing a nuclear payload in a spaceship and sending it to intercept the approaching comet and detonating it by using a remote control.
