asteroid heading for earth

In the event of it hitting the Earth, the rock would have the force of 350,000 mega tonnes - around eight million times more powerful than the bomb dropped at Hiroshima at the end of the Second World War.

For all your comments on impending doom, there’s a thread right next to this one. It's quite clearly labelled 'METEOR HEADING TOWARDS EARTH!!!!!! IT'S TRUE!!!'

Don't maim, injure, or otherwise molest the messenger.

There's two of these things. One needs to be closed. What a waste of time.

oh and i think someone forgot to mention in the year 2014. that is about 10 years away........................................and um by then i will be 23. you all will be 10 years older. life will suck more. so if the asteroid wants to hit i say bring it. I'm sure hillary clinton's as$ is big enough to deflect it.

I think Hilary Clinton is lovely and I'd b*ne her anyday. I don't care about her politics (irrelevant to me anyway in Stoke-on-Trent) I just think she's a very attractive woman, regardless of the size of her rear.

In case any of you havent figured it out yet.

There is almost 1,000,000+ Asteroids in our own asteroid belt.
550,000 of them could be considerd NEO's (Near Earth Objects)
500,000 are asteroids the size of a SUV.
50,000 are rocks the size of New York City to the size of Montana.
And the mostly hang out in to places in our solar system.
The Asteroid Belt and the Kuiper Belt.
Its the ones in the Kuiper Belt id be more concerened about, some of them are nearly 1/6th the size of our moon.

The Article mentioned above merely points out that there is a chance the rock would become a NEO but a .00002 percent chance it would hit home.

However if there was a Planetary Killer on its way here I doubt we would here about it in the news, something about paranoid people in this world.
And as for those neat little movies (Armeggedon, Deep Impact) Do you really think a asteroid is something that can be stopped, Changing a big rocks course like that would take lots more that Spaceships and Nuclear Weapons.
