Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
We are not worried at all, because of this 99 percent chance it will miss,” said Paul Chodas, director of NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies. “But it deserves attention.”
At a time whwre once in a century / millenia events are happening every year 
In astronomical terms a 1% chance is absolutely huge.
100m across. Dino killer meteor was 10km. Size scales with cube of diameter, so this is about 1/1000000 the size of the dino killer. Even if it hits, we'll be fine.
Maybe it will land on DC 
booooo let me dream
what if it's going 1000000 times the speed as dino killer?
You jinxed it
gotta admit, I am leaning towards team asteroid right now. not sure team ~~earth~~ humanity has anything to offer in the near term.
Probably should get around to watching Don't Look Up to prepare for this, huh?
Brilliant film that. The amount of people that didn’t get it was scary though.
It made chuds so fucking mad lmao. Many other libs too.
The number of reactionaries who thought the movie was making fun of environmentalists is alarming.
2032?? BUT I WANT IT NOW
Multibody gravitational systems are chaotic so it's impossible to predict them perfectly, far into the future. As it gets closer the modeling will get much more accurate, kind of like a weather forecast, to the point that if it were to hit we'd have a very good idea of where.
I hope on that day all the rich are at a party and it lands there.

Fingers crossed
Dear meteor, if you really want to hit Earth, please let it be in the USA, Artificial Zionist State (aka Israel), England or France. Thank you
how do i send an asteroid my address?
According to the Barbault Cyclic Index the Years from 2031-2034 will have a big catastrophe, the last dip was around 2019-2022. So this could be actually hitting Earth.
