Asteroid 2021 YQ

The asteroid is about the size of a large commercial airliner (~200 feet) is expected to approach within 1,330,000 miles of Earth on January 5, 2022.

The last time 2021 YQ approached Earth's orbit was on December 7, 1902.

Asteroid 2021 YX

is also expected to approach Earth on January 5, 2022, though it will be a little further at 2,390,000 miles away.

This rock is about 100 feet wide...This asteroid has never approached Earth before...

Asteroid 2014 YE15

This 24-foot wide rock is expected to approach Earth on January 6, 2022, and is about the size of a bus.

Asteroid 2014 YE15 is expected to be the furthest out...around 4,600,000 miles away.

Asteroid 2020 AP1

will come closest to Earth at about 1,080,000 miles away on January 7, 2022.

Though this asteroid will come nearest to Earth, it is thankfully the smallest at 13 feet wide...

Asteroid 2013 YD48

NASA's report concludes with asteroid 2013 YD48, which is expected to approach Earth on January 11, 2022.

This massive rock is 340 feet tall (The famous London clock tower Big Ben is about 315 feet tall) and will come within 3,480,000 miles of Earth.

The last time this object approached Earth was in March 2014.

It is expected to orbit back around towards Earth in 2030.

Space climate change must be addressed!

Yawn

[Libloather]

Big Bee?

[Dalberg-Acton]

So many questions.
Should I run in a clockwise circle, counter-clockwise circle, or just random patterns?
Should I run with my hair on fire, or naw?
How loud should I scream?

I watched about 10 minutes of that stupid movie.

Well,a house fell on the Wicked Witch...so maybe Bella Pelosi should be worried.

[digger48]

Just get Stacy Abrams to go to Europe and change earfs orbit

[Scrambler Bob]

and one is the size of Big Ben
= = =

But is it a big as Chris Christie?

[Caipirabob]

Don’t worry, the democrats already have each of them registered to vote in at least 5 states.

[Carriage Hill]

That’s 10 you’ll never get back.

Stacy has her own gravitational pull.

[GraceG]

wake me when they are expected to pass WITHIN the orbit of the moon/earth system.

[Carl Vehse]

"... at least FIVE asteroids are heading toward Earth in January... "

It seems that none of them will approach the Earth to within 240,000 miles, which is the distance from Earth to the moon.

So it would seem that "heading toward Earth" is more of a "Chicken Little"-type phrase.

Big Ben? #7?

[SamAdams76]

Unfortunately we will need more of a group effort to ward off these asteroids.

If all of us ran outside at the same time and started flapping our arms like the energetic boy down below, we might generate enough wind to knock these asteroids off course just enough to guarantee they miss Earth.

But in order for this to work, all of us need to participate. If just one of us decides to be lazy and flap arms in a lackadaisical manner, we will all be probably doomed.

An Asteriod strike is better than this Covid flu crap.

[tophat9000]

Yea that was one dumb movie

[metmom]

Hmmm…..

Which five targets do I want them to hit?

Washington DC for sure.

NYC?

Mecca?
