Anonymous Coward User ID: 58908855 United States 06/05/2014 04:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A newfound huge asteroid, nicknamed "The Beast," is expected zoom by Earth this weekend, and you can get a sneak preview of the space rock flyby today (June 5). Quoting: chumpisme The asteroid 2014 HQ124, which is the size of a football stadium, poses no chance of hitting Earth in its flyby on Sunday (June 8), and will pass by at a range of three times the distance between the Earth-moon on Sunday (June 8). It was discovered on April 23 by NASA's Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer, a sky-mapping space telescope. This afternoon, the online Slooh community observatory will host a live webcast preview of asteroid 2014 HQ124, beginning at 2:30 p.m. EDT (11:30 a.m. PDT/1830 GMT) at its website: [link to www.slooh.com.] You can also watch the asteroid 2014 HQ124 webcast on Space.com, courtesy of Slooh. The webcast will feature a discussion with Slooh astronomer Bob Berman, host Geoff Fox and asteroid impact expert Mark Boslough. The mammoth asteroid 2014 HQ124 is about 1,100 feet (352 meters) across, according to scientists with NASA's Asteroid Watch program at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. [Potentially Dangerous Asteroids (Photos and Images)] Asteroid 2014 HQ124 will be traveling up to 31,000 mph (14 km/s) — 17 times faster than a shot from a high-speed rifle — when it makes its closest approach to Earth on Sunday at 1:56 a.m. EDT (0556 GMT) at three lunar distances away, a Slooh representative said in a statement. One lunar distance, or the distance between the Earth and the moon, is about 238,855 miles (384,400 kilometers). Berman said it is "disconcerting" that an asteroid this large flying so close to the planet was only spotted less than two months before its nearest approach to Earth.....see link [link to news.yahoo.com] I just got off the phone with Phil Plait and he has confirmed that NASA 's calculations are in error regarding this Beast Asteroid. It now appears that an impact will occur. |

IF, a big one is projected to hit earth, would they tell us? |

We also have something relating to the Beast coming up in June this month. On the 17th of June this month would we 666th week since 9/11. On this day also is when we are given the warning that we could potentially start losing everything from the computer virus which would lock us out of our computer system. People could potentially start losing their money. Anyway, just drawing your attention to what I found out. |

(OP) User ID: 53750302 Canada 06/06/2014 06:58 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | More on the 'beast' asteroid from National Geographic A giant asteroid will silently glide by Earth this week, a stark reminder of cosmic dangers lurking nearby . Measuring about 1,067 feet (325 meters) wide, the space intruder nicknamed “the Beast,” more formally known as HQ124, has an estimated width equal to an aircraft carrier (earlier estimates had been even larger). It will be three lunar distances away from Earth at its closest approach on Thursday, so thankfully there is no risk to our planet. However, it’s a big one and we didn’t notice its approach until April 23. While it’s nothing new, thanks to dedicated telescope surveys, to hear about asteroids whizzing past Earth or the moon, it is unusual to see such a large one go unnoticed for so long. NASA’s Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer picked up its movement against a fixed backdrop of stars, traveling at approximately 31,000 miles per hour (50,400 kilometers per hour).
