Depends on the asteroid, I guess. Which one did you have in mind...

Good point. I guess, then, that the correct answer must be that one of Bill Watterson's alter-egos or personas said that...
but nah, mate, nah. In the airing cupboard then? I'm thinking caxton home brew kit's here. Would you like to be more specific for our other readers?In the Petro Chemical Industry 'Sparging' is used as environmental clean up after a spillage. Hydrocarbons are turned from their dissolved state in soil and water into vapour.
In home brewing, and without googling it, I'd say it was used to get more sugar out of the grain by spraying it with warm water, in a Heath Robinson kind of way perhaps?

Sadly, the authorities closed us down last year - i.e. Mrs JWM decided that homebrew was bad for my waistline
Sparging is to be found in all full-mash brewing, home or commercial, and it is indeed the spraying of the boiled malted grain and hops with hot liquor (water) to get the last drop of gunge out of it for the wort, which is then fermented.
So a point and pint of Jennings to the man from Cumbria!
