Original Note:
This statement is misleading. Earth was hit by asteroid about 65 million years ago, wiping out dinosaurs. 'Humans' have only been around some 2 million years or less. Large impacts may occur in order of every 10s of millions of years. So not really protected. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_event#:~:text=Asteroids%20with%20a%201%20km,once%20every%20twenty%20million%20years.
