It does seem like we should be taking these opportunities to redirect objects. After its safely clear of earth orbit, of course.

What would happen, theoretically, if that asteroid hit the earth? End of the world? Like a nuke for the area that it hits?

If a rocky meteoroid larger than 25 meters but smaller than one kilometer ( a little more than 1/2 mile) were to hit Earth, it would likely cause local damage to the impact area.

"Local damage" lulz

Edit: just look what happened to Buenos Aires

Scientists say we would be able to change the course of a comet or asteroid through giant mirrors that point light at the object causing it to veer off course.

So the plan is to blind the comet so it can't see where the frick it's going. As Harry Stamper would say
"You're NASA for crying out loud"

In terms of distance in space, yes. We track things that pass much closer (even within the orbit of the moon), but this is the largest close encounter that we've had in a while - that we know about at least.
