Similar but your lawn chairs need far more cushioning due to the massive extremist hyper velocity of an asteroid, compared to just super sonic speeds of ICBM nukes.
You can thank me after the BOOM!

May God grant us protection.
What will the next AU portion be?
And when will the tectonic plates shift significantly in California?
And will the Weather Channel correctly predict the arc of movement of the biggest hurricane of the year 2019?
And when will the next MSM commentator say that Trump reminds him or her of Hitler? (That last one was a setup. Already happened as I was typing.)

Thanks for that detailed classification chart. A lot more authoritative than my musings below.

Is there a way to direct it to Chappaqua?

"...it has a pretty good chance of hitting our planet if its orbit manages to intersect with our Earths orbit." Always true for any asteroid or run-away freight train...
Sounds like another recent prediction from the fabulously fat prophet: Rachel Bitecofer, the assistant director of the Wason Center for Public Policy at Virginias Christopher Newport University...

Hey,dude. Ya’ still got it, boy. Go get ‘em.

I think I’ll still keep showing up for work just in case THE BIG ONE doesn’t hit :)

I liked your musings. The Torino Scale works but it requires estimation and identifications. Without your musings, the Scale is like a full score of Beethoven’s 9th but no orchestra.

If one this size hits land it will end civilization as we know it. If it hits ocean the tsunami would change the coastlines all around the ocean it hit and send enough water vapor into the atmosphere to raise global temps by a few degrees (a catastrophe). If it hits in either polar region the oceans rise would alter civilization significantly but not be an extinction event.

To: Flick Lives
Not only sensationalistic but really stupid and contradictory.
“It has also been tagged as hazardous meaning it has a pretty good chance of hitting our planet if its orbit manages to intersect with our Earths orbit.”
“NASA has already detected another massive hazardous asteroid, named 2006 QQ23, that has high chances of hitting our Earth next month.”
Why is it hazardous if it’s going to be much further away than the moon? Why is there a high chance of hitting the earth?
The author is a space case.
To: citizen
If there was any genuine risk we would not be reading about this.

How big do you need for extinction? Chicxulub was about 10 km.
But that was a worst case, a shallow water strike over carbonaceous rock.

Yours was the best comment yet.
The thousand years straight now of “Damn, asteroid didn’t hit today. Well, off to work again.”
