Surprised nobody had posted this yet? The whole reason I thought you guys visited this site was to be ready when something like this happened...

So apparently its passed us but not outside of the minimum pull threshold - gravity whiplash, so to speak.

Currently it is heading on its orbit back towards Earth, and should be visible in the morning sky within a few hours flying over the East Coast of America.

I wish all my brothers and sisters out there the best of luck.
