Right, "no need to worry..." (as all government officials race to their underground bunkers). I'm sorry, I know I'm not astrophysist or something, but really? HOW can they say this asteroid poses no threat to the earth "even if it dared to try it wouldn't make it through the atmosphere"???? REALLY?? It's 36 feet BIG! Traveling VERY FAST!!!!! I think it very well COULD hit the planet if the trajectory was right. And even if it didn't hit, it could explode in the air...EMP anyone??
