(Don’t be scared. It was only 7meters across at most.)

“What’s really remarkable about this spooky space rock sighting is that it speaks to how astronomers are getting better at spotting incoming asteroids. It’s very possible that we’re getting buzzed by cosmic boulders on the regs, and always have been, but we’re just now getting a sense of how much traffic is really up there.”
