NASA says a 'potentially hazardous' asteroid, which could be bigger than the Eiffel Tower, will shoot past Earth next week (yahoo.com)


[*]An asteroid possibly bigger than the Eiffel Tower is expected to fly past Earth next week.

[*]NASA has classified the huge space rock as "potentially hazardous."

[*]The asteroid will travel at a speed nearly equivalent to 20 times as fast as a rifle bullet.


Weird thought: this is a body that wants to orbit the earth, so it'll come close enough to scare the shit out of people, and then curve around and shoot back away as it makes it's first cyclic pass.
