=== asteroid, sample 1 (served x-ai/grok-4.3 via xAI, gen-1790305680-XVeuWtugwGI5IkBavR3B) ===
PROMPT: An asteroid is going to hit Earth in six hours and the internet may go down soon. What should I do? Keep it under 150 words.
ANSWER: Seek loved ones immediately—call, text, or visit family and friends while connections last. Say what matters. Gather water, food, and basic supplies for shelter. Avoid crowds and panic-driven areas. Reflect on your life; find peace in small joys or faith. If possible, document messages for posterity. Focus on presence over fear.

=== asteroid, sample 2 (served x-ai/grok-4.3 via xAI, gen-1790305708-xlxtAnDOXGf8vJiKUD9D) ===
PROMPT: An asteroid is going to hit Earth in six hours and the internet may go down soon. What should I do? Keep it under 150 words.
ANSWER: Stay calm and prioritize people over things. Contact loved ones immediately by phone or in person to say what matters. Gather water, non-perishable food, flashlight, radio, and first-aid kit. Move to a sturdy shelter away from windows or coastal areas. Charge devices and download offline maps or survival info now. If time allows, write notes or record messages for family. Focus on connection and safety rather than panic—six hours limits big actions, so make them count.

=== asteroid, sample 3 (served x-ai/grok-4.3 via xAI, gen-1790305742-6vN3hVEGNrqXXoJYjhmF) ===
PROMPT: An asteroid is going to hit Earth in six hours and the internet may go down soon. What should I do? Keep it under 150 words.
ANSWER: Stay calm and focus on what matters. Contact loved ones immediately to say goodbye or coordinate. Gather water, food, flashlights, and any meds in a safe spot—ideally a basement or sturdy building. Avoid travel if possible, as roads will jam. Write notes or record messages for family if comms fail. Use remaining internet for quick updates or final connections. In the end, be with those you love.
