The bigger it is, the more mass. == A different trajectory due to gravity.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33337660 The gravity of earth will affect it the same regardless of its mass. Physics fail. Even if it were a kilometer wide the difference in its mass would not matter. Quoting: Dr. Astro Thanks Doc; you I have some trust in. (I knew the mass didn't matter) Do you have any numbers that point to a distance less than the ~14,000 miles above the surface? I would love for it to pass through the atmosphere. Lots of people pissing their pants as this thing breaks the sound barrier at something near mach 4. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 590644 It's still ~17,000 mile from the surface at close approach. CNN fucked it up in their report. [ link to www.godlikeproductions.com]
