Asteroid a MILE wide due to skim past Earth THIS WEEK - as experts warn of MASS EXTINCTION
"A COLOSSAL asteroid hurtling through space is feared to be one of the biggest EVER to threaten a collision with Earth.

The gigantic missile thought to measure almost a mile across will brush closer than previous monsters which have sparked a global panic.

Worried astronomers warned 1999 FN53, which is an eighth of the size of Mount Everest, will skim the Earth in THREE DAYS."

Ahhhh, sweet doom. How I've missed thee.

We are a rock floating an endless space of other rocks flying everywhere. We are going to get hit again eventually.

The Express is the newspaper equivalent of Sorcha Fail. This thing gets no closer than 10 million kilometres away ! That's about 25 times the distance to the Moon.

Re: Asteroid a MILE wide due to skim past Earth THIS WEEK - as experts warn of MASS EXTINCTION
sighs- looks at real figures instead of hyperbola from a trash tabloid

nearest approach is over 10,000,000 km
distance to moon 380,000km

`Worried astronomers warned 1999 FN53, which is an eighth of the size of Mount Everest, will skim the Earth in THREE DAYS.

A collision would be nothing short of catastrophic triggering mass destruction, earthquakes and global extinction.'


Astronomers aren't worried, as its nearest approach is 25 times further away from the earth than the moon is...

in fact the closest it gets to earth is 1/5 the distance from earth to mars!!!

Sucks that it isn't going to hit, but put into a cosmic perspective, it's still extremely close for an asteroid 8 times the size of Mt Everest. It's just a matter of time...

It will be the one they don't see, that will get them. The one that passed real close to the earth 2005, was never talked about, but it was real close, that was right before the big hurricane hit Florida.
