Sure glad I'm not tall.
Don't want that thing getting too close next time around.

BTW,
what's the 23rd sign of the onset of depression?












Looking for near Earth objects !

LOL..it might have been...


I just saw it on a link..

I hadn't heard anything so I thought I would have a look ...its a bit close though in the grand scheme of things..Remember to duck on the 31st..

Here is a thought..I wonder how close it will come to the moon..

They are forecasting something like 17 times the moon's distance from us.
That puts the moon somewhere between 16 times and 18 times it's distance from us to the "near Earth objects.

This one is nearly as large as the asteroid which, 65 million years ago, wiped out the dinosaurs.

But not the opossum, apparently....
