The asteroid that won't

Just when you wanted to relax on a Friday night.. this news is revealed: 2km-wide asteroid approaching Earth, NASA warns »


 

An asteroid big enough to kill millions of people is on its way to Earth but is expected to brush past, missing by a mere 25 million kilometers – a narrow distance by space standards, NASA said.

If all goes well death and destruction will stay safely away from earth..
But boy is that close..

A shave that close is even more startling when you realize how recent we found out about this..

I heard an expert say a few weeks ago on Art Bell's show that giant asteroids would most likely be known if they were close to earth.

I guess not all of them, eh?
