Not that any of us are qualified to answer but what makes you think that a 500km asteroid would shatter our planet? Our planet is about 13000km in diameter, or 26 times bigger than the said asteroid. While 99% of life on Earth would surely be wiped out I highly doubt our planet would shatter in a million pieces.
