Hmm, the probability is now 1:46 (2.2 %). Apparently there was some new observations?

Anyway I almost hope that this is a *very* close call, because it would force us to create the needed technology..

forget deviation or destruction, throw the thing into orbit... you never know when you'll need a few extra million tonnes of material to build something out there.

Ummm...if it hits the ocean, there's going to be one motherfucking big tidal wave to deal with. Definately catistrophic. This is certainly not Armageddon, but perhaps Deep Impact?

I don't know you, but I hope your not.

This would cause a pretty horrible tital wave, but not end the world.

In fact, another news item I am going to post in a second is a tital wave of an -8.0- (stronger, in fact) homegrown, non-asteroid quake that has ended up killing 7,000 people so far (likely more as they get to count.)

Can't they blow that shit up or something?

1:37 now. Do you play Roulette?

Here's Space.om's article on the issue.

Couldn't we get a cooler Bruce? Like Campbell?

awwwww.

sucks that yet another asteroid crapped out on us. one of these days we're going to get thoroughly owned by something awesome, and it'll be cool. like that episode of sliders... yeah.

Yup, it's gone. I'm still going to try and get some obs of it tonight, since it isn't quite a 0 Torino yet.

Shows over, nothing to see here folks.
