With 30 years lead time, I'm not going to worry about it. If we are ever capable of deflecting an asteroid, 25 years from now is the time to worry. Or more accurately, 24 years from now. That's when this asteroid is set to approach close enough for the Earth's gravity to possibly alter its trajectory enough to hit on the pass in 2036 - if it goes through a 'keyhole' in space about 641m wide.

If it's 642m in dia, I'd geuss that it wouldn't fit and we'd have to acquit.

(If the political indictment's from Fitz, the jury always acquits.)
