While we didn't know the dinosaurs personally, we do know that they were wiped out by an asteroid impact.

In the short term, some deadly virus might be more important, but in the long run there is hardly anything more important than asteroids.

We not only need to train people, we also need to develop deflection technologies.

It would take an extremely large spacecraft to deflect a large asteroid that would be headed directly for the Earth.
