I don't mean to offend you but I don't understand what you are trying to say when OA is C you will go for E.

This is a Gmat Paper test Q correct? There must be a reason why C is correct. If it were some other source we can think of a bad question.

@ khurram

(E) astronomers have developed a scale that rates the likelihood of a particular asteroid or comet that may.... the use of both 'likelihood' and 'may' is redundant and makes this option wrong.

I agree that C might look awkward at the first instance but read carefully and you may start loving it :)

cheers!!

No, E is not the correct answer. Inserting answer E into the sentence gives:

"Responding to the public’s fascination with-and sometimes undue alarm over-possible threats from asteroids, astronomers have developed a scale that rates the likelihood of a particular asteroid or comet that may.collide with Earth."

The astronmers' scale in this sentence rates the likelihood of a collision; using answer choice E, it rates the likelihood of an 'asteroid or comet', which doesn't make sense. Answer C makes clear what the scale measures.
