(Classic Rock) Queen guitarist Brian May says it's only a matter of time until humanity is destroyed by a giant asteroid hurtling into the earth. More than 100 people have joined the call for governments and private business to do more to track and detect asteroids.

May - who has a doctorate in astronomy - is one of a group of scientists who are calling for efforts to be increased to detect asteroids capable of causing widespread destruction of the planet.

May tells the Financial Times: "The more we learn about asteroid impacts, the clearer it becomes that the human race has been living on borrowed time. The campaign launched this week is intended to raise awareness and put pressure on governments to act." Read more here.
