Two things make this article and its panic instilling tone ridiculous:
1. The picture is definitely not to scale as the asteroid in the picture is about 1/8 the size of earth or about 1,000 miles wide if my grade school science memory has not failed me.
2. 6,000,000 miles is almost 20 times further away than the moon.
Color me unimpressed.
I’m sitting on the beach and the most beautiful bikini clad girl ever passes by 6,000,000 miles right in front of me!!!
wow, hubba hubba.
