It'll be cool to see what our space geeks learn from it.

An asteroid named Apophis — estimated to be 885 feet across — will venture extremely close on April 13, 2029 — but will not strike. It has a remote chance of hitting Earth when it comes around again on April 13, 2036.
Bye bye North Korea! Seriously... who else is it gonna hit? :rofl:

I'll have to see if I can see it with my telescope. Not sure if it's powerful enough, but it would be cool to see. I'm sure the kids would get a kick out of it, too.

 

[pstlpkr]

How'd it go Bootleg?

Any luck?

 

[bootlegbonvivant]

Um, it's not Tuesday yet, lol.

 

[pstlpkr]

LOL! Duh!

 

[rigmedic1]

Blame the neutrinos!

Hey Folks,
This is cool.
Asteroid

That is cool. Not quite clear tonight here in Maryland, and the news said a telescope was needed. So, we just gazed up into the sky for a while, which was nice anyway!
