Initially scientists had thought it measured around 1.3km in diameter, but now Nasa has said it is more likely to be 0.7km.

This suggests it measures around 1.3km in diameter.

Um, now I AM confused.

Wouldn't be the first time NASA got confused when translating back and forth between metric and English units.

Should the second ‘diameter’ be ‘circumference’?
