Watch this cool asteroid size-comparison video
Seems to be an update to the first one…
Seeing the objects larger than Chicxulub was terrifying.
I’m a lot less worried about any of these than I am about those gigantic trees in Central Park! Comparing them to the Statue of Liberty they all look well over 100’ tall.
They left out all of the Big Four asteroids, even though they included a made-up asteroid nearly as big as Hygiea.
if they had those 4 they would have had to put in the moon and the Death Star(s) for comparison, and then it would never end
Even Ceres is still 4x weeer than the moon
We’re all go’n die, someday…
So long as there aren’t belters covering them in stealth tech and flinging them earthward… we’ll be okay. Probably. Maybe. Until we aren’t.
Until then…
Weeer is an awesome word, ya jabroni
What, no Meteor (Barringer) Crater meteor and its 50 m didn’t make the list?
Yeah, yeah, this is an asteroid list, but for a point of reference of how much damage to the Earth one of these could do it would have been nice to have it listed.
