About a thousand people were injured, so I was say that they observed it striking the earth.

Last I heard it’s supposed to miss us, but it’s going to be a close call. I think they they said it will pass one-half the distance that’s between us and the moon, which in terms of asteroids is a close call. The scary thing about it is that they just found this sucker approaching a few days ago. It’s like these things just pop up out of the dark abyss of space.

The Younger Dryas, momentarily.
That right there is funny.

I think in space it’s an asteroid. In the atmosphere it’s a meteor. On the ground it’s a meteorite.

I’ve seen fireballs like that 2-3 times in my life.

I saw one in the Marines at Camp Lejeune one morning going to the rifle range just before sunrise.
It was a beautiful green streak then a huge flash of explosion, but no sound................

That first one I saw one just like it when I was a young Marine. Early one morning, just before good sunrise, bright green streak then a huge flash as it exploded, all without a sound................

“I’m rootin’ for the asteroid.”
At another site they called such a flying rock a “SMOD”.
“Sweet Meteor Of Death.”

Actually being inside our Satellite bubble is a concern. If it smacks one or two it could set off a chain reaction... That was the premise of the movie "Gravity"

Not close enough IMO.
Unless it makes impact.
