On May 14th, the gigantic asteroid 1999 FN53 will blow past the Earth approximately 26.5 lunar distances away, or 6,360,000 miles. While a drastic change of trajectory could put the asteroid on a collision course with our planet, it is highly unlikely.
However, due to the colossal size of the rock, which is roughly an eighth of the size of Mount Everest, the event leads many to speculate what would happen if the asteroid did hit the Earth. What could possibly happen?
One professor of astronomy, Bill Napier, at the University of Buckinghamshire, states that an impact of this proportion would kill off about 20% of the Earth’s population. “It would undoubtedly lead to the deaths of around 1.5 billion people, we are looking at a mass extinction of humanity.”While many are panicking, there is an even larger asteroid that is expected to hurtle past even closer to Earth in June.

Just pray…
Well it’s been real
Yay no more bills or taxes
It is more than a million miles away. Why don’t you guys go stir up things elsewhere?
So many of you think this is funny until it happens, but the truth is that there are more of them on it’s way, and what God wants to do with us then I wouldn’t blame him for doing whatever needs to be done because we are an evil generation that has no fear of God, but you will.
What has ‘everyone in a panic’ is the hyping of ‘m$#%&!@* extinction’ in the $#%&!@*les of these posts. How about ‘collision unlikely’ or ‘collision highly unlikely’ as is contained in these articles.
At this point, who really cares?
I needed something else to worry about…
Who loves CGI and bad CGI at that. It’s f**e.
