Isn’t this firmly in the category of “You can’t do anything about it”? So what...who cares? Why worry?

It’s going to pass behind, just like the Blackhawk a couple weeks ago.

So, why worry about global warming at all?

Surely there is some way to scam people because of the asteroid fear!

75% of Earth’s surface is water so it will likely hit ocean. Tidal wave will be huge.

Don’t worry about it. Elon Musk and his boys already have this covered. They’re going to go retrieve it and put it next to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum.

Greta Thunderbutt is going to blame it on “climate change”, Israel and President Trump.

This is getting silly. Are we going to get an update every day?

The real odds are 0% and 100%. And we are not going to know that for a while.

Why would they continue to post this crap? I don’t usually get into “conspiracy theories”, but this sounds like an effort to make NASA relevant.

If nothing else, this sounds like an exercise for a planetary defense missile. It’s likely to only cost four or five trillion dollars.

The probability of a strike is inversely proportional to the percentage of NASA’s budget being cut.
