Couple of questions:
1. What is that object on the far left that pulled it toward us in the first place?
2. Why did it suddenly detach itself from our gravity at the end?
.
Also, while it looks extremely close, it should also be noted that every single known planet in our solar system can fit between the Earth and the Moon. So it looks a lot closer than it actually was.
kurukuruguy - I think you're right. I see now that they moon was right there when it happened.
guest - yes, in an astronomical sense there are many many things that are insanely close. That doesn't mean they actually are close or in any way a danger to us.
a meteor that close is a very real threat to the earth. Next, you're going to tell me that if a meteor were to hit the earth, people not directly under it would be fine right? "Trust me if you're like 2 feet away from impact you'll be fine, after all you arent touching it!!" Listen. Go open a book. Read. Study. Develop a brain. Spend 30 years on a fucking mountain and meditiate. Do whatever the fuck you have to do to break into the double digit IQ club. Then, come back and laugh with me at how stupid you currently are.
I didn't say any of those things. Obviously if it hit, we would be in trouble. But guess what, genius - it didn't hit. It came nearby and went on it's merry way. It wasn't a threat, hence no one was worried when it happened. But thanks for being yet another unbearable guest.

That's freaking scary
