This Giant Asteroid Could Hit Earth Within 20 Years So YOLO
Mark your calendars for Aug. 26, 2032 as the day the world could end


The apocalypse is back, and it’s dressed as a 1,350 foot-wide asteroid headed to a planet near you.

A team of Ukrainian astronomers have discovered a massive asteroid, 2013 TV135, that’s on track to hit earth Aug. 26, 2032, Russian news agency Ria Novosti reports. The discovery was confirmed by five other astronomy groups in Italy, the U.K., Spain and Russia’s Siberian republic of Buryatia.

While scientists are unsure if the minor planet will actually hit earth, they estimate the explosion would equate to 2,500 megatons of TNT, or more vividly, “50 times greater the biggest nuclear bomb ever detonated.”

NASA scientists put the threat of collision as being extremely low. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory manages the Near-Earth Object Program for NASA, stating :

Newly discovered asteroid 2013 TV135 made a close approach to Earth on Sept. 16, when it came within about 4.2 million miles (6.7 million kilometers). The asteroid is initially estimated to be about 1,300 feet (400 meters) in size and its orbit carries it as far out as about three quarters of the distance to Jupiter's orbit and as close to the sun as Earth's orbit. It was discovered on Oct. 8, 2013, by astronomers working at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in Ukraine. As of Oct. 14, asteroid 2013 TV135 is one of 10,332 near-Earth objects that have been discovered.

With only a week of observations for an orbital period that spans almost four years, its future orbital path is still quite uncertain, but this asteroid could be back in Earth's neighborhood in 2032. However, NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office states the probability this asteroid could then impact Earth is only one in 63,000. The object should be easily observable in the coming months and once additional observations are provided to the Minor Planet Center in Cambridge, Mass., the initial orbit calculations will be improved and the most likely result will be a dramatic reduction, or complete elimination, of any risk of Earth impact.

"To put it another way, that puts the current probability of no impact in 2032 at about 99.998 percent," said Don Yeomans, manager of NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. "This is a relatively new discovery. With more observations, I fully expect we will be able to significantly reduce, or rule out entirely, any impact probability for the foreseeable future."

A "news" organization is reporting that JAXA scientists claim NASA miscalculated the path of the asteroid and that it will directly collide with earth:

NASA Miscalculates Asteroid Path; Japanese Scientists Predict Earth Impact

Scientists from the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) have announced that NASA made a crucial miscalculation in their prediction that asteroid 2013 TV135 will miss Earth.

Lead scientist Yoheshu Kaiwi explained that NASA scientists “failed to account for Earth’s gravitational wobbling”. When this wobbling is factored in, the asteroid is on a direct collision course with Earth.

Dr. Kaiwi graciously explained how the error could occur, “NASA scientists are under constant financial constraints, and the organization really doesn’t have the money to perform such complicated prediction experiments. The Japanese equivalent, JAXA, is much more respected and supported by the Japanese government. Therefore, we really receive the financial support that enables us to correctly make these predictions.”

Dr. Kaiwa ended his announcement on a grave note, “The size of this asteroid will cause great damage to Earth when it collides. We cannot imagine the catastrophe. It will strike with a force greater than 10,000 Godzillas.”

As one Godzilla is bad enough, we can only imagine what 10,000 Godzillas could unleash on the planet.
 
Well if this does occur then we all should see the so called secret space program and not surprised if the top of the cash pyramid have not all know about this prior. Furthermore, the troubles with cash markets would smell fishy? Who was the lady who new the NAZI Scientist who ran NASA space programme post war?? Also how many of there offspring are still involved in NA/Z/SA?
