Just a thought....
What if the epoch was changed to the mar 25 date. Am I sort of understanding this right?
Does that change anything? Is that how it works?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23559912 But that's not what it says, at all. I'm running an integration right now with it set to January 1st 2000, since that's the date it seems to indicate if you take it using the same logic used for the first set presented. Quoting: Dr. Astro Ah. Definitely waiting for it! Thx! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23559912 Ha. Ha ha. That's funny, actually. Ok, so the second set misses earth by a bigger margin than the first set (no doubt because whoever tried to construct this probably did so without taking into account the gravity of the planets, relativity, etc - they probably thought this was another impactor orbit) BUT the asteroid does cross earth's orbit at midnight on April 1st, 2013. Cute. Whoever did this at least had a sense of humor. Quoting: Dr. Astro WAIT....WHAT!!??? You mean it wasn't gibberish???!!! Holy Crap! So what is going on with this guy? He's obviously NOT the OP! But what does that now mean? Back behind
