Don't Make Plans Past New Years....

[Lost Cause]

Asteroid XO14, due to fly within 0.021 astronomical units of Earth. It's over 100 meters wide, not a planet killer, but could mess up your day. 50 of these babies fly by a year, they won't know if any one will come down till it happens. Whatta think? Party till you die, or grow an ulser worrying about it?

Asteroid XO14, due to fly within 0.021 astronomical units of Earth.

0.021 astronomical units = 3,141,555 km/ 1,963,472 miles. (1 Astronomical Unit = 149,597,871 km/93,498,669 miles)

So for average people, that's not even a near miss
