Compared to the distance of space.

> fox news.

Enough said.

Haha i like that fox news Nuff said. And also that 200,000 isnt that far…our moon is only 238,856 miles away from us…so lets do the math…lol it was close than the moon? lol…holy shit thats close

Wow that video in OP was really bad.
1. "Asteroid nearly misses earth." suggests that the asteroid hit earth (but barely)
2. The asteroid was *really* poorly made, and could have been made better by a 12y old.
3. The tail of the asteroid didn't follow the orbit around the sun

So… it's their goal to land on an asteroid? I say stick to the moon or Mars.

Fox news…. Somehow it still manages to surprise me how unprofessional these "news" sound.

Fox's news reminds of the news station in Japan in How I Met Your Mother where Robin was working for a while.

there are a few major ones that go around our solar system.. one which (might have been the one in OP) if it is in a certain range it will hit earth when it comes back around in like 2036 iirc
