It’s wearing a MAGA hat and about to hit the Capitol, just as the January 6 Committee sits down for a meeting.

A NASA satellite studying the solar wind is in an elliptical orbit around Earth that takes it from its lowest point of 116 miles to its highest point of 292,237 miles from Earth. For a short while, this will be the “highest”.
The James Webb Space Telescope, which launched on 25 December 2021, will be placed in an orbit that is 930,000 miles from Earth.
I did search before posting.

If the driver is bright green, will they give it an automatic beat down?

Meteor crater in Az was caused by a meteor of about 150 feet wide. This one is about 20 to 40 feet wide. So the Az meteor was a lot bigger. But size is not everything, composition maters too and the Az meteor was solid iron so it did not burn up in the atmosphere and it hit the crust of the earth at 20,000 mph or higher. Most meteors and comets are not solid iron, they are ice and stones and unless really big never make it thru the atmosphere.

I’d like to see them try to beat up a bus driver with 12 arms.

A geostationary orbit, also referred to as a geosynchronous equatorial orbit[a] (GEO), is a circular geosynchronous orbit 35,786 km (22,236 mi) in altitude above Earth's Equator (42,164 km (26,199 mi) in radius from Earth's center) and following the direction of Earth's rotation. Study harder.
