Bert Posted 3 July 2006 Posted 3 July 2006 If it was this morning i was in bed. If it missed i don't care.
Katy Posted 3 July 2006 Posted 3 July 2006 I heard about it today, didnt think to mention it on here though - soz
Head Honcho Posted 3 July 2006 Posted 3 July 2006 25 miles away and I may have got a sweat on ..............but it was 250K miles away! That's about the same distance as the moon give or take a few thousand miles.

MC Prussian Posted 3 July 2006 Posted 3 July 2006 Well, imagine what would've happened if the news had issued a "warning" beforehand... Can't trust them, they could have said it was only 250 metres away or coming straight at us... Mass panic guaranteed! Whatever. I'm still alive, you're still alive. We should be thankful for that.
Head Honcho Posted 3 July 2006 Posted 3 July 2006 in space terms that sounds pretty close to me This statement from a leading Astrologist is more worrying “At least we knew about this asteroid. We should be more worried about the unknown ones. There are quite a lot of them flying around out there that are still to be discovered"

There are things we know we know. We also know There are known unknowns. That is to say We know there are some things We do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns, The ones we don't know We don't know. donald rumsfeld â€â€Feb. 12, 2002, Department of Defense news briefing
