Oh noes!

Women and minorities will be hurt the most when the asteroid impacts. White males will not be hurt because the asteroid is a misogynistic racist.

At some point it won’t be a joke and we’re not ready.

Is about 19 lunar distance.

93000000 x .04977 = 4628610, sorry - not even close ….

Instead of constant war making by profiteers we should be formulating and being ready to execute plans to prevent such an asteroid from striking earth. This would change life as we know it for everyone on earth. Truth be known the elites would already be in life sustaining bunkers long before they tell us it is here.

Ready to do what?

has a pretty good chance of hitting our planet if its orbit manages to intersect with our Earth’s orbit.

Do people actually get PAID to write this stuff?

It is predicted to be 4+ million miles away from Earth. If the thing came between the EArth and Moon I’d worry.

Well, we got this years asteroid warning.

Now we just have to wait for this years solar flair warning.

1870 feet in diameter...much bigger than the 66 foot diameter Chelyabinsk meteor over Russia back in 2013. No kidding!

Ratio of volumes (assuming spheres) and masses (and impact energy) is (1,870/66)^3 ~ 23,000.

How big do you need for extinction?

[txnativegop]

if it such a thing were to strike a gypsum bed it would not matter a dam where they were holed up or how many supplies they had. no need to worry

[txnativegop]

the Chixilub impact landed in a gypsum deposit and liberated a huge quantity of sulfur compounds. but it was 6+ miles across.

if this one lands in a similar type spot we will have problems and if it lands in water the coasts are toast.

Looks like NASA released a click bait announcement.

Dammit ! And I just retired !!

“At some point it won’t be a joke and we’re not ready.”

Yep and the scoffers will be the loudest ones whining why the government did not do something.

Ready to do what?

Fornicate like minks....

or maybe that's just me
