An Undetected Asteroid Passed Close By Earth Last Night But Didn't Have The Balls To Do Anything

DC- A small asteroid barely missed Earth over the weekend, just hours after scientists first spotted the space rock. The near-Earth asteroid 2017 BH30 got within 32,200 miles of the planet, about 7.6 times closer to Earth than the moon. The asteroid is about 19 feet wide, according to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Space rocks of that size only pose a threat to Earth or human life under extremely specific orbital circumstances, like entering the atmosphere at a very exact angle and speed. This isn’t to say they can’t do damage. A 65-foot object exploded over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk in February 2013, injuring more than 1,000 people. Typically, however, asteroids have to be roughly 0.6 miles in diameter to actually significantly harm human life on Earth.

Yeah that’s right. You better keep walking. What a pussy that asteroid is. It flies that close to Earth and still doesn’t have the stones to actually do anything. I’m on record saying I’d fight an asteroid with my bare hands to save Earth and I stand by that today. Everybody always tries to act cool with the doom and gloom like, “Oh I hope the asteroid hits Earth. I’m sick of this place. End it now.” Oh okay you traitor. What has this place ever done to do you except let you be alive? If you were anywhere else in the universe you’d be a super duper dead. This place gives you food and water and allows you to jerk off. That’s the place you wanna let an asteroid crash into? I’m not buying it. Anyway. Typical asteroid avoiding these WMDs (stops typing and points to biceps). Asteroids simply don’t have the moxy they used to. They had the balls to wipe out the dinosaurs but they’re deathly terrified of humans. And they should be because of these previously mentioned WMDs (stops typing again and points to biceps again). Keep it moving, space rocks.
