Asteroid a MILE wide to hurtle past Earth in 72 HOURS - as experts warn of MASS EXTINCTION

[Some Random Guy]

That's ok then , probably not make the news.

It might, won't be a ratings winner though.

1.5 billion dead? Oh, in Africa. *switches channel*

If this was to actually be heading our way do we (humans) have the Fire power to completely destroy it before it enter our atmosphere? Or failing that maybe knock it off course?

There must be some sort of plans in place

No. Too much kinetic energy (too big too fast).

There threads are much better than the politics ones, I am sure Farage will be here soon though to tell us immigrants orchestrated this.

1.5 billion people would be killed if the asteroid hit



Eh? On that picture they posted with the caption, this Asteroid looks bigger than 'an eight of Everest'?

Yeah, gotta love the Express. Tell us its about a mile across then show a picture of it hitting us and its about 2,000 miles across

The clangers are going to be ok tho???

I see the some of the tramps wandering round in the pyjamas in the shops and sometimes I think an extinction event is something we need

Well, it is a foreign body, like.

"Though several million miles away astronomers fear a slight deviation from its orbit will put it on a headlong collision course with the planet."

I would like to know what could cause a mile wide lump of rock travelling at 30,000 MPH to "deviate slightly" ?

Steve Bruce had better not eat any more pies tonight.

He was on Die Hard too

6 million miles away? Oh fuck!

It seems that the Express is attempting to out-shister the Daily Fail.

Every cloud has a silver lining.

We could avoid relegation after all without even kicking another ball.

.....seems a desperate measure by the Labour Party. Good chance they might get back in if they pull it off though.

If an asteroid was anywhere near close to actually hitting us it would not be in the papers, the government would censor it to hell and back to avoid mass panic.

Vote UKIP.

Vote UKIP.

He wouldn't let it lie.

Thanks be to god that I've woken up alive this morning. Has it gone yet?

That wouldn't be possible as it's amateur astrologers who do most of the observing.
