Cool vid :D

500km asteroids however are pretty frigging rare thank god. If the vid is correct and it's happened 5 times before in earth's 4.6 billion-year history, the odds are we're alright for now.

Well, at least until my fetid unhealthy life of max 60 years has expired. :ninja:

The "scary" part is that the good people at "asteroid watch" can only cover, due to lack of funding, only about 3% of the sky.

So, if an asteroid is ehading our way, chances are, there' a buttload of others too :clap:

Wasn't that line from the film Contact? Sad thing is, it's prolly true, I'd rather live in blissful ignorance at least anyways. :sex:

I'd much rather know.
Not so that we could do anything about it, but so I could watch the 24hour news feed of it happening. It would be the ultimate disaster movie.. Popcorn at the ready!
