Sweet ... every time one of these guys cruise by we have a chance to collect more tiny moons. These things would also make great spacestation platforms.

Lost opportunity. Repeal the 1967 UN Outer Space Treaty and let space development begin.

Asteroid Cruises Past Earth ... With a Partner! The ACLU*, legislatures of 18 states and a few countries immediately demanded they be afforded marriage rights...

Experienced amateur astronomers in the southern hemisphere may be able to photograph the double-rock using backyard telescopes and CCD cameras on July 14th when 2008 BT18 makes its closest approach to Earth (2 million km). The asteroid will flit through Canis Major, heading south, glowing like a 13th magnitude star.

Sweet ... every time one of these guys cruise by we have a chance to collect more tiny moons. Or great big new crater lakes.
