    It looks like our earth survived another close call, and I don’t remember even hearing anything much more about the asteroid when it did go by.

    We seem to have been going through a whole group of near earth objects (NEO), for at least the last month, and who knows how much longer this will be happening.
    I found this information on Twitter this morning, and you can see that all of these asteroids came much closer to the earth than the moon is at.
