Yup, Thank God we have Jupiter that is so big that it attracts all those comet and asteroids that otherwise would head to earth...

First, I am also glad.

Second, our atmosphere would do a much better job of skipping off a low trajectory strike, or may reduce the object by burning it up & breaking it up as it falls through the atmosphere. Obviously, a massive meteor would be substantial even after burning up a bit in the atmosphere, so I am with you. Glad it didn’t hit us.

Still, it is nice to know we are a much smaller target than Jupiter with a bit more armor plating around us.

It was a breakaway chunk from Obama’s ego.
