since it's going to be closer to the moon we might be able to see it. so I guess a telescope is needed.
I have a good pair of binoculars so I will use those. This is interesting. NASA will probably get some pictures anyway. :)

Pekka Fucking has said it is no danger. It is only an old alien shitsausage, that is passing by. :roll:


Apropos passing by. Will you be more visible this Thanksgiving? In that case I will bring lots, lots of Nomnomnoms...

:lol: Yeah, you're right. Also, there were a bunch of little earthquakes in the Midwest yesterday, which would have given the Pagans and Bible thumpers alike something to discuss! :)
But, I don't think it's funny to the Okies who lived there, though. :err:

Yeah and a huge one in Turkey just a few weeks ago but I guess that since it didn't happen in America it doesn't really exist.

"a few weeks ago" I think is the defining term. Of course we knew it existed, the story was on the news every night for two weeks! Don't be such a smartass about it, you do not live in Turkey, either! :lol:
I was just mentioning those earthquakes because they happened at a much closer time with the astroid fly-by on Tuesday. :)

Tonights the night!!!!! :D
This particular asteroid is not a planet killer, but it would be a pain in the ass for a while if it did hit Earth. Produce 70-foot tidal wave, 7.0 earthquake, and a crater 4-miles in diameter. Odds are it would hit Oklahoma---they had bad tornadoes yesterday on top of everything else. :err: WTF are they getting bullied by Mother Nature for? ???
