Looks to pass at about the same distance as the moon. Should be a cool one. All of the data is below.

Here is the source. NASA's Near Earth Object Program (2012 DA14)

So many alien conspiracy stories have come to mind. I just don't know where to begin. As long as it's not the Blob. Freaking guns did nothing to that thing.

I've suffered with an asstroid that felt like it was at least the size of a boxcar before.

Let me tell you, it ain't no fun!

It's the Mayans coming back riding an asteroid. Just a few days late. Lol

I doubt this one is meant to drum up a scare. If you check my link it gives the dimensions and it is very small. No tinfoil hats needed, just a cool event.
