Sure glad it didn’t hit Puerto Rico. The socialist “democrat party would never let us hear the end of it.

“This doesn’t mean space rocks are getting more aggressive in the 21st century,”

Gotta get those space rocks to stop listening to heavy metal. Put on some soft rock instead.

It always seems a shame to me that these rocks fly who knows how many millions of miles and who knows how many millions of years, only to meet their end by ignominiously burning up in our atmosphere. Now landing in the middle of a San Francisco Gay Pride parade— that would be the way to go, and be well worth the trip.

This is like looking into a train tunnel and expecting us to be amazed when we report “A Train is Coming!”......

So, basically it hit with about 1/3 of the force of the Hiroshima bomb and nobody noticed.

Maybe God was aiming for the RAT debate in Miami tomorrow night.

The Number 72 on the asteroids jersey made it easy to identify.
The asteroid scored 6 points upon impact.

Back in my day a space rock the size of a refrigerator was called a meteor. Guess they’re going to have to rename the Murchison Meteorite the Murchison Asteroid.

This rock burned up in the sky but had the impact of 5KT of TNT? The author must have dropped out of 3rd grade science class.

If an asteroid hits the earth and explodes with the force of 5,000 tons of tnt, women and children will be affected most.
