NASA and astronomers have given the object a 0.06 rating on the Palermo Technical Impact Scale (a scale used to measure asteroid impact threats), making it the first ever to be given a positive value.

Thats in 14 years... hmm then im 50

Ok, no problem... let him come..

**crockett** · 12-09-2004, 07:55 PM

btw well will all be dead by then anyway as this one is due to hit on March 21, 2014..

**Brown Bear** · 12-09-2004, 07:58 PM

I'll be living on Mars by then, so it doesn't matter

No way... it has only the effect of 20 million Hiroshima atomic bombs...

**budz** · 12-09-2004, 08:06 PM

I'll be sure to duck.

**brizzad** · 12-09-2004, 08:07 PM

December 27th, 2012 = the end

**Nasty D** · 12-09-2004, 08:07 PM

Someone better hire Bruce Willis to get up there and blow the shit out of it!

**iwantchixx** · 12-09-2004, 08:07 PM

you'd be shocked at the amount of those that come nearly hitting us each year.

**xclusive** · 12-09-2004, 08:09 PM

**detoxed** · 12-09-2004, 08:11 PM

Sweet, I'll buy a trip to the moon that day

Update
It appears that we dodged a bullet this time with asteroid 2002 NT7. NASA's Near Earth Object Program released this statement:

"With the processing of a few more observations of asteroid 2002 NT7 through July 28, we can now rule out any Earth impact possibilities for February 1, 2019. While we cannot yet completely rule out an impact possibility on February 1, 2060, it seems very likely that this possibility will be soon ruled out as well as additional positional observations are processed.

"Because the SENTRY system tracks a multitude of test particles in an effort to map the uncertainties of the asteroid's future positions, some of these test particles can take slightly different dynamical paths. Hence there are currently two entries for 2060 in our IMPACT RISK table. The entry with the higher risk (larger Palermo Technical Scale) would be the value that would then take precedence."

I have read recently and posted a link on GFY to Science magazine, that it is possible the there are kinda invisible asteroids that may HIT EARTH AY ANY TIME.

It's not proven yet, but they may exist.

So that scared me a little.

**Mefo** · 12-10-2004, 05:54 AM

okay everybody please already stop making adult sites and give the ones you have to me

Yes, I've read a bit about that too. Very scary.

With the release of Deep Impact and Armageddon both at the same time, I remember wondering if these people knew that the government wasn't telling us something.

Maybe the fucker will land jerusalem or palesitne..and wipe that shit stain off the pimpled ass cheeks of earth

If an really big asteroid hit earth, it would be the end of the world as we know it. Only very few people could possile survive and it would be an end to the whole civilisation. Not to mention complete anarchy.

Ah well, here's hoping !

Humans are assholes anyway, bring back the dinos...

**NoCarrier** · 12-10-2004, 06:20 AM

THAT NEWS CAME OUT IN JULY --> 2002 <--

Astronomers have ruled out an Earth impact from asteroid 2002 NT7 on 1 February 2019

THANK YOU TROLL

Yeah, I already pointed this out above. Not the date, but the fact it's old news.

The potential of another one is scary nonetheless.

**tranza** · 12-10-2004, 06:31 AM

Lol... This is what I call fake NASA drama...

**crockett** · 12-10-2004, 06:32 AM

Don't forget about the Super Volcano under the Yellowstone National Park

All you west coast fuckers are going to go bye bye.

**Indica** · 12-10-2004, 06:35 AM

I just figure i'll worry about it when the time comes, since there isn't much I can do to stop this kinda thing. lol.
