If it passes every 5 years, why are they reporting analysis as if it passes every fifty years? Typo?
2050 is the next time it’ll come really close, and ditto for 2079. All the other times e.g. 2022, 2027 etc it will be further away as it passes Earth.
Was wondering the same. Or they’re lying to us again/still.
Five years, I might worry. Fifty, blah, don’t care. Besides, who wants to live in a world without polar bears?
