Asteroid Flyby

Small Asteroid to Pass Close to Earth March 5

A small asteroid that two years ago flew past Earth at a comfortable distance of about 1.3 million miles (2 million kilometers) will safely fly by our planet again in a few weeks, though this time it may be much closer.

During the upcoming March 5 flyby, asteroid 2013 TX68 could fly past Earth as far out as 9 million miles (14 million kilometers) or as close as 11,000 miles (17,000 kilometers). The variation in possible closest approach distances is due to the wide range of possible trajectories for this object, since it was tracked for only a short time after discovery.

Do ya suppose that it might me reprogrammed? Maybe land in Tehran? You do know that would solve many of the planet's ills.

May God bless,

Wouldn't there be a heavy gravitational pull at 11,000 miles?? :shocked:

The only thing we have to worry about is whether it is a Jewish asteroid...

The only thing we have to worry about is whether it is a Jewish asteroid...Do you think the Comet people will try to hitch a ride?

Do you think the Comet people will try to hitch a ride?

They are welcome to my change if they need it.
