If Space Naviagotor Pilot Ibana is flying a training mission right now…I suggest buying up all the real estate surrounding Buenos Aires and Montevideo real quick.

If we all pooled our money…er…minatures and munchies, we could have some hot water-front property (both lit and fig) in no time!

"Fire for effect, Mister 'Xdzgrrk."

If it were me, there is a nice volcano in the Azores I would aim at.

That's "Mister X'Dzgr'Rk" to you…you OFM!

But aka…I wonder if these thingies could pass close enought in influence tides and honestly shake things up around the Azores…you'd really be on to a drive by catastrophe then!

Doug, the links are to a news story about another asteroid "near miss" (this one 49,000 miles away), while the previous TMP thread is about an earlier miss this same month. The sky may not be falling, but the universe is tossing rocks at us.

but the universe is tossing rocks at us.

the universe is always tossing rocks at us, just the big ones have been missing and the small ones make nice lights in the sky "Every Night".

Exactly! But one of these days, the big one isn't going to miss…

Better than being pidgeon-holed, right?

"Better than being pidgeon-holed, right?"

Depends. If the pigeon hole doesn't say "extinct" above it…

NASA's Near-Earth Object Program

Perhaps they should change the name to NASA's near miss program. :oP
