Done on the conversion I mentioned, give me a few minutes to reboot into linux to check the result in ORSA. Forgive me if I don't render a whole new video about it though, takes forever on my machine.
Quoting: Dr. Astro Aha, that is definitely what was apparently meant by those screwed up TLE's. That does produce an "asteroid" that gets close to earth. At its closest, 15,000 km from earth's center, or a little less than 9000 km from the surface. Still a miss and a fail, but a much closer miss. The date and time of the miss would be 9.755 days prior to the epoch of the elements, in other words, it would have already hit us yesterday if it were going to hit lol. So then does that mean they are two different orbital elements? The first one being a miss you said? When did it miss? And what about the second set of elements? Cause the poster wrote something like " t-9 days for the NEXT one? Did this thread just get interesting???!! It missed yesterday. The second set can't be parsed, the epoch is too fucked up to the point of nonsensical. I wouldn't call it interesting, just that now I see what the hoaxer was trying to do. At least they tried to do something other than spit out random numbers into a TLE template (though the use of the TLE format to begin with demonstrates they don't know what they're doing), but they still failed to produce elements consistent with an earth impact, let alone an earth impact later this month. So was the second set any chance of a typo? Those elements look really frickin complex! Was he warning of one that just passed then warning about one the 25th? From the date of his post plus 9 days = Mar 25th
