Apparently there was a new #NearEarthAsteroids discovere that could hit us. It's called #2024yr4. Current estimates are at about 1% chance of it hitting the #earth. I know a few places that could use an #meteor strike. ☄️💥

The Earth is getting an extra mini moon for a few weeks… how many times has this happened in the past? The article already points out that this is relatively frequent, as it has happened a number of times since we’ve been tracking near earth objects.

Move along, nothing to see here. Nothing's going to happen despite the doomsday proclamations you may have heard. 🙂

"Two asteroids are set to zip past the Earth at relatively close distances over the next couple of months. Despite what you might read in the usual tabloid sites and weird YouTube channels with terrible audio, both are extremely unlikely to hit us."
