the end is near
Perhaps you haven't heard about this. Scientists are theorizing that they could use space-traveling robots to deflect inbound asteroids. One huge threat is an asteroid called Apophis which could strike earth on April 13, 2036. Now, this sounds all nice and fine, but that robot could deflect the asteroid only to turn around and smite us smugly from outer-space. What a cruel irony. To be saved from the killer asteroid, only to find our end from an orbiting satellite gone rogue. Mark my words, if that machine goes up, we all go down!
Also, are you aware that the British have actually built systems named Skynet? Talk about tempting fate.
