NASA says there are three potential impacts, but ''based on 21 observations spanning 12.968 days,'' the agency has determined the asteroid probably wont have a deep impact, let alone bring Armageddon. Phew. The chance of it hitting the earth is just 0.41 per cent, data shows. |

It's less than 2metres across, it would break apart on entering the amosphere, but even if it survived, the damage would only be local, not cataclysmic. Unless it landed on you but what are the odds of that? 1/2360000 to the 9th power by my calculation.

@ shadow27 - 23.08.20 - 09:24am 2020 has already been quite a testing year, but NASA has now flagged there is an asteroid zooming toward us. The celestial object known as 2018VP1 is projected to come near Earth on November 2, according to the Center for Near Earth Objects Studies at NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory. A day before the US presidential election. A mere 7 feet / 2 meters. It will burn way up in the atmosphere if it does decide to make impact. |

A map of every object in the solar system larger than 10 kilometres. Asteroids are in the positions they were on New Year's Eve, 1999.
