how to stop incoming planets and astroids?

Kill the halleys. Nukes/units must be sent before the engines are activated; it's impossible to send stuff to a celestial body that's being actively maneuvered

Don't let them reach the incoming stage. You're alerted the second someone starts work on a planet engine, and since you can see all orbital you also know if someone went to an asteroid.

Really? im almost positive you can still send a nuke while a halley is active and moving.

Nope, the nuke has to be sent before the engines engage.

I can confirm that you can shoot the death star laser at an incoming planetoid, not sure about asteroid but i'd assume you could do that too.

Nope...
I think it's an issue but the devs never adress it...

I've even suggested to use the atlas to be able to hold a celestial body (because the atlas is pretty useless) but it doesn't reach any ears...

Guess you never noticed this achievement.
