From the article:
“So, as always, there was nothing to worry about here folks. These objects are always spotted before they cross Earth’s orbit, and their paths, periods and velocities and are known about in advance.
“Even so, it’s worth noting that an object of this size was nowhere near to be large enough to cause an Extinction Level Event.”
I know.
Just recalling the hysteria in certain circles over it
Nothing to worry about until one is spotted two weeks before it hits Earth.
Yeah, they say its harmless. Until it falls on your house. Who is laughing then?
And they say its not an Extinction Level Event kind of rock. No, but it would wreck our day if it hit anywhere in the northern hemisphere.
