“The real killer has got to be atmospheric.” Earth Planet NearEarthObject
The United States National Aeronautic Space Agency , on Monday September 9, 2019, announced that an asteroid that posed some “concern” to Earth’s safety would scrape past the home planet on September 27.
QZ3 is the biggest of the trio, with a diametre of 220 feet , while RG2 and QY4, respectively measure approximately 66 feet and 52 feet in length, according to NASA’s Centre for Near-Earth Object Studies . CNEOS representatives confirmed on August 15 that QV89 was no threat to Earth, and that the asteroid would instead rocket past our planet on September 27 “at a comfortable distance of 4.3 million miles , about 18 times the distance of the Moon.”
Also, scientists at the University of Texas at Austin have found “hard evidence” of the asteroid that killed off dinosaurs. So the dinosaurs were first fried and then frozen, said Sean Gulick, a University of Texas Institute for Geophysics research professor at the Jackson School of Geosciences.
