Science Asteroid the size of a bus missed the Earth by just 240 miles on Friday 13

[SlyPokerDog]

Asteroid the size of a London bus missed the Earth by just 240 miles on Friday 13 in closest pass on record — but it wasn't spotted until the next day

• The rock — dubbed 2020 VT4 — was seen 15 hours after its whizzed on by
• It was detected by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System on Hawaii.
• The 16–33 feet wide body, had it come much closer, would have burnt up
• It is the second asteroid to break the record for closest approach this year

It’s a shame....

....that it didn’t land on Trump.

You could see them peering out the windows of their bus while screaming in terror at the thought of either burning up in our atmosphere or making an emergency landing and having to meet with our dear leader, Donald Trump.
