If a large meteor impact was immenent, could we actually do anything about it? Would we blow it to tiny pieces, or somehow split it into 2 large pieces whose trajectory would miss the earth.

If a dinosaur-extincting size meteor was on the way, could the government somehow keep it secret and only the privileged get into the shelters? Or is it easy enough to spot these meteors such that your local university would see it and spill the beans?

Thanks!
