22 meters = HoHum
22 kilometers = ELE
Time change.................
No, but he did put a lot of gratuitous sex into his sci-fi novels..........
Depends if its a stony or irony meteorite....................
The world CANNOT end tomorrow. I have plans.

Thanks, now I have that insipid song stuck in my head!

“Gratuitous sex”?
Is that like one of those remote controlled, vibrating posterior robots?
Cause if it is, you’re gonna get in big trouble here.
I was just standing there trying to understand what the heck a machine like that could be used for, and I almost got the zot.
It was almost like when I stuck the car key in the electrical outlet.
Been done before. Noah's flood, the plagues of Egypt. Worlds in Collision, Immanuel Velikovksy, 1950.
It’s best not to write articles when hungry.
Just a coincidence?

So, the world is ending tomorrow?
I hope it waits until after the Bama-Tennessee game. I’m really looking forward to that one.
Thanks Red Badger. Looks like some nitwit added "fake" and "fakenews" to the keywords, sure hope nothing happens to the silly bastard.

In the event of a collision, there’s a 71 percent chance that the asteroid will strike the ocean. How dangerous is that?
Did La Palma go quiet? Guess they needed a new disaster story.
Given its size, not that much. Some worry about a tsunami risk, but the fact is, the Pacific and Indian Oceans have been under-monitored for a long time (and still are, although the Australia region space watch is excellent), and impacts of that size happen, on average, every 50 years or less, and there haven’t been any unexplained devastating tsunamis.
I think they gave the dimension as 22 meters? The Barringer Crater object was perhaps five times that — but in all three dimensions, thus, 125 times the mass (give or take composition). One wouldn’t want to be under it, should this happen, and the similar size of the Chelyabinsk meteor (which blew 18 miles up) showed what kind of widespread but minor damage can result, but the short answer is, probably not much.
Would not surprise me if it was part of the main mass.
Along a particular orbit, there is debris strewn all across the path as chunks break off and get left behind.
These eventually become meteors.....................
“Stars Fell On Alabama”
We lived our little drama
We kissed in a field of white
And stars fell on Alabama
Last night
I can’t forget the glamor
Your eyes held a tender light
While stars fell on Alabama
Last night
I never planned in my imagination
A situation so heavenly
A fairy land where no one else could enter
And in the center just you and me
My heart beat like a hammer
My arms wound around you tight
And stars fell on Alabama
Last night
We lived our drama
We kissed in a field of white
And stars fell on Alabama
Last night
I can’t forget the glamor
Your eyes held a tender light
And stars fractured ‘Bama
Last night
I never planned in my imagination
A situation so heavenly
A fairy land where no one else could enter
And in the center just you and me
My heart beat just like a hammer
Arms wound around you tight
While stars fell on Alabama
Last night
That looks ‘fake’.......................
Great post!
