Asteroid 2012 DA14 is getting bigger and bigger. WTF?

[link to neo.jpl.nasa.gov]

Scroll down a bit here and see max now at 90m.

Didn't St.Malachy say something about an asteroid or comet wiping out one continent during the last month of pope Benedict? Not sure,someone look into it maybe.

(2012 DA14) 2013-Feb-15 0.0002 0.09 40 m - 90 m 24.1 7.82

No, he didn't......

good catch OP 5

Is anyone else having issues getting to the actual page of the orbital for this?

The bigger this thing actually is, the more Earth pulls it closer...

No, but he did say that the Vatican would be struck by lightning mere hours after Benedict announces his resignation.

Well the truth is are you still paying your taxes ,money plays a major part in any catastrophe ,it goes.. pay taxes ,you only know what the governments want you too know ,save the millionaire members of the government first (not the underlings),save the elite,inform us when the danger is so close you don't have time to save yourself let alone get to your loved ones ,you make it to your loved ones,you all die together ,you don't make it you all die apart,but most important pay your taxes to make sure these elite survive .

Countdown in progress:

God bless us all

well glp effect will prevent it from hitting earth.

This shit is really going to fuck up my Friday ... and it's my birthday ...

Interesting,

Seems like I remember a poster commenting on if a large asteroid or something was going to hit that we wouldnt know because nobody really understands these things fully...its just all theory...or something like that, kinda like this poster "knew" maybe

I would have to assume when they said it would not hit, they were using the 45m number.

True that they should be updating that with the new size, but have they?

anyone?

if the trend continues...45, 52, 58, 65, etc. with three days to go we could easily find out it's 100m, so they have got to keep re-calcing the gravity effects, but will they tell us the new results?

A few days ago the odds of a hit were like 1 in a billion, so they have not completely ruled out a hit. With a larger size those odds have to get closer to 1/million, 1/1000 I would think.

I liked that whats that planet doing behind our eclips funnier.

But then again the last solarblast ofcourse got in its trajectory and...

Im no astronomer so I lack supposed "knowledge"...

But if viewing an incoming "object", especially one of a high rate of speed, wouldnt you only be able to see the earth facing side of said "object"? So really how would one know juat how big this thing really is...maybe what we are seeing is really only a fraction of what follows?

I wonder how that feels a planet hitting another one when you are on the opposid side of one.

...ooh wauw man thats awsome.

if they know a small one will hit they may or may not tell the public

if a big ELE rock will hit then the .govs will never tell you

you will know when you see the 3000 foot tsunami

If they tell you that a mile wide or bigger rock is coming then all money would loose its value and people would walk off their jobs society would fall apart. And then the damn thing misses.

No they will never saya word and for many good reasons.

Oh yeah man i bought 20,- euro i slept more.

i've heard 70m-80m

maybe is a a kilometer or a few and they are just trying to confuse the amateurs til the last minute

Anyone have a screen cap of the "death dance"?
