Earth Plays Some Cosmic Asteroids

Earth played a sweet game of chicken later Tuesday and early Wednesday with this little pixelated fellow.

Yes, that's right this potentially global killer sized beasty slipped past barely farther than the Moon away. 'Course no one knew it wouldn't pulverise our ass 'til a little less than two weeks ago.

Rumours and scuttlebutt indiciate some sort of craft may have been used to nudge the asteroid slightly.

At least, for now, we get to keep our fucking quarter and avoid some all-caps GAME OVER joy.
