Q: If the egg heads aren't sure how big these things are, how do they know how close they'll get? 🤔

[Kozak]

Mock all you want. Someday we get hit. We just don’t know when.
No point in panicking, but it’s not a joke either.

The asteroid isn’t in danger of hitting Earth, but if it did ...

There is no zombie apocalypse, but if there was...!!!

"Skimming"?!?!

861,700 miles is over three times the distance the moon is from the Earth. Next the media will claim the moon is "grazing" the Earth's surface.

Typical media headline hype.

The monstrous (in girth) hemorroid-like asteroid that almost destroyed everything just about exactly 2 years ago.

[rjsimmon]

its size could be anything from 12ft to 91ft meters wide.

What's a ft meter? Is it one of these:

[Verginius Rufus]

What are "ft meters"?

The moon's distance from the earth varies from 225,000 to 252,000 miles, with a mean distance of 238,855 miles. I'm not sure how much that is in ft meters.

[SMGFan]

how should we prepare in response to the warning?

[Fireone]

“..12ft to 91ft meters wide.”
“..distance of 3.12 million miles away.”
“.. tens of millions of kilometers.”
“.. within 302,000 miles.”

Boy, this science talk is really confusing, it must take years of college to learn how to sort this all out.

Run Forest, run!

[CodeJockey]

its size could be anything from 12ft to 91ft meters wide

Stopped reading at that sentence.

“Talk about something else that’s falling from the sky
and that is an asteroid. What’s coming our way? Is this
an effect of, perhaps, of global warming, or is this just
some meteoric occasion?” - CNN’s Deborah Feyerick

Rusty: Hey, ya’ got Pac Man?
Cousin Dale: No.
Rusty: Ya’ got Space Invaders?
Cousin Dale: Nope.
Rusty: Ya’ got Asteroids?
Cousin Dale: Naw, but my dad does. Can’t even sit on the toilet some days.
