Have you heard of 1997 XF11? A mile across, and it will pass very close by in 2028. Currently, it is expected to miss by a comfy 600,000 miles.

Do not tell Al Gore. He may find a way for Global Warming to use gravitons to pull it into Earth’s orbit. He is really quite brilliant, so I hear. I am serial.

With all the particulate matter thrown up in the air we won’t have to worry about glowbull worming. Look at that, the United Nations kills two birds with one stone. Is there nothing the UN can’t do?

Statistics are a funny thing. Sure it’s less than powerball odds, but there really is only 1 earth playing the asteroid game. There are millions of peeps buying lottery tickets, so one of them hitting it becomes pretty commonplace.

If the 1:45,000 odds are correct (and I doubt they are), that would mean that if 45,000 asteroids of this trajectory were headed our way, ONLY ONE of them would likely hit us.

I can accept those odds.

I agree with Gunstar1. I am much more concerned about the ruling elites using whatever they can to gain, consolidate and centralize more command and control over the rest of us.

I wouldn’t worry. The world is going to end on June 26, 2033, well before the asteroid becomes a threat.

Apophis? Will there be Jaffa?

If they come up with an “Operation Thor”, I might puke.

Rest easy, the United Nations is on the case.

I wasn’t scared until I read that last line. Now I am worried…
