There is an organization dedicated to the detection and ultimately course correction of potentially destructive asteroids. You can read about it at: http://sentinelmission.org

September 20 1355 GMT. I'm not getting any new work. 2 Desktops and 3 tablets all seem to be working OK. Requests for new downloads seem to be going thru. Could it be that there is no new work to do???

Generally, military components have to be more robust in terms of temperature extremes and reliability. Very often they are individually per-tested before being shipped to manufacturers. Given all this, they are definitely more expensive. Between Commercial and Military grade components you will find Industrial grade components - with corresponding interim specs and prices.
At the very top of the ladder you'll find space certified components.
