>From Time magazine, "Numbers" section:

$50 million:
Estimated cost for a 10-year program that would
identify large asteroids most threatening to earth.[1]

$75 million:
Budget for "Deep Impact", a film about the devastation
caused when a comet hits earth.

[1] This originally said $5 million for annual cost. I changed it
because it was slightly misleading.
