It will be travelling at a distance of 191,000km away from civilzation.

Yeah, but how close will it get to Mecca?

Doomsayers believe a huge alien world called Nibiru or Planet X is hurtling through space towards us – and will hit tomorrow.

I'm supposed to be at a meeting tomorrow...does this mean I don't have to prepare anything?

“a huge alien world called Nibiru or Planet X is hurtling through space towards us – and will hit tomorrow.”

Good to know.

There’s a previous article about finding a cave on the moon.

My guess is that the cave is a garage for these asteroid buses.

Too bad they can’t change the trajectory to Pyongyang.

That was one of least accurate and most sensationalistic science articles I've ever had the misfortune to read.

I especially liked the last few paragraphs (below the pic of an object ~100,000 times larger than this asteroid hitting the Earth):

But in one of its next passes with Earth, experts suggest that 2012 TC4 may not miss. [It will, almost certainly. Even if it hit, it would be a non-event for 99.9999% of the Earth's surface.]

The near-misses coincide with end of the world fears. [Only the completely uninformed share these fears.]

Doomsayers believe a huge alien world called Nibiru or Planet X is hurtling through space towards us – and will hit tomorrow. ["Doomsayers" apparently believe a lot of nonsense.]

The planet will cause devastation on Earth with a direct hit or catastrophic near miss, believers warn. [The "believers" are delusional.]

It’s going to pass 191,000 kilometers from earth?

Let’s see....if I remember my conversion formula right, that puts this about.....er.....something like 16 miles away from Pisscataway.

Hold on to your hats!
