A visiting mini-moon is circling Earth, according to astronomers who discovered the cosmic squatter in our planet's orbit.
The tiny asteroid, dubbed 2020 CD3, was spotted by astronomers in Tucson, Arizona, on Feb. 15.
"BIG NEWS," Kacper Wierzchos, a researcher with the Catalina Sky Survey at the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Lab, tweeted Tuesday. "Earth has a new temporarily captured object/Possible mini-moon called 2020 CD3. On the night of Feb. 15, my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Teddy Pruyne and I found a 20th magnitude object."
Wierzchos said that the object measures about 6 feet to 11 feet across and that its orbit suggests that it entered Earth's orbit around three years ago.

The Mother Ship, bringing Q a new secret message.
I wondered where Nadler put the fat he lost after the surgery.

If this thing is in a regular orbit beside a picture of what it really looks like how about a graphic showing what that orbit is.

It would be great if it were pink, pink, pink, pink, pink moon.
Three years ago? 6’ x 11’?
It’s the DNC server and the 30,000 deleted emails.
It is a visiting planetary probe.

Yeah, sort of discovered it based on a friend of a friend’s recommendation. He has similar interests and I decided to give it a try. Ordered the set for Christmas last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. I was a little iffy just a couple episodes in but all in all a solid entertaining series. Which I know I should expect from Quinn Martin.
So much decent vintage television and motion pictures out there if you can find it.
At least, apparently, it didn't stop and mess with uranus...
I found it on MeTV. They run an episode every late Saturday night. They also run the other premier QM production of “The Fugitive” early Monday AM. Stuff beats about 99% of the new crapola today, which must inject a radical left and Sodomite agenda into EVERY episode. Sick.
Well with everything else happening to Trump, why not throw in an asteroid gearing towards earth......how about a martian invasion....he’ll be blamed for that also.....
