A direct hit on DC with all politicians in session would be nice.

It will never get higher than 5 degrees elevation where I live, and at 17.5 Magnitude, I would need a 40 inch diameter scope to see it at all.

“Close approach”??
Fifteen times further than the moon!

“Close approach” is SIXTEEN TIMES as far away as the moon, fer chrissakes!! Let me know when it flies a couple miles over Walla Walla, then we can call it a “close approach.” Heck, using the same language as these alarmists, we could just as easily say “The MOON, a FULL QUARTER of the size as EARTH, CONTINUALLY MENACES Earth from ONLY a quarter-million miles away! We’re DOOOOMED!!!”

Sad to say, me too. Can we steer it where we need it? 😅✌🚀

If you even see an asteroid “blazing” that means it’s in the atmosphere above you and your remaining life is measured in milliseconds.

A miss is as good as a mile (or a few million).
