ASTEROID NEAR MISS: You trust NASA? They will tell us if an asteroid impact earth?

impact earth?
On Nov. 6th at 2132 UT, asteroid 2009 VA barely missed Earth when it
flew just 14,000 km above the planet's surface. That's well inside the
"Clarke Belt" of geosynchronous satellites. If it had hit, the ~6-
meter wide space rock would have disintegrated in the atmosphere as a
spectacular fireball, causing no significant damage to the ground.
2009 VA was discovered just 15 hours before closest approach by
astronomers working at the Catalina Sky Survey
simulator:

Perhaps the next one will only be worth 60 meter diameter, and made of
iron, nickle and thorium.

No worries: It was only about six meters across and it missed by a
distance that was less than 110% of the Earth's diameter. It would have
burned up in the atmosphere . Might have been impressive though.

No worry whatsoever, because for many decades they had also missed big
old Cruithne that was only discovered as of October 10, 1986.

What could possibly go wrong if a 1.3e14 kg mass was missed and only
detected hours before impact?
Wasn't Cruithne sufficiently big and/or ever bright enough? (only 0.12
or similar to the physically darker surface of our Selene/moon that's
fairly easy to see)

Like you and I said before; don't expect any government warning if the
big one comes in until it's too late. That's why Tholen avoided my
question. (Is there a current increase in celestial objects passing
through our solar system). That is why the Vatican is doing their own
research.

As we continue to close in on the Sirius(B) Oort cloud, all of hell is
going to bust loose, and there's other stuff headed our way even
faster.
Notice how mainstream media has been directed and otherwise threatened
as to not mention blueshift items. Textbooks are also forbidden to
include such blueshift context, and/or having been banished for
mentioning items headed our way.

So, the truth bothers you that much?

a lot of asteriods lately... The time is near...
WEEKEND FIREBALLS: On Saturday, Nov. 7th, just as the sun was setting
over San Francisco Bay Area, a brilliant meteor glided across the sky
and disappeared into the sunset. Witnesses say it was "slow-moving,"
"white and green," and that it left behind "a trail of smoke and
sparkles of debris." Alerted by a friend, Rick Baldridge of Campbell,
California, rushed outside and snapped this picture of the fireball's
aftermath:
Massive fireball over Tokyo...

Rest assured, we can at least trust our NASA (much like FEMA) to tell
us about the meteor/asteroid after the impact.

What for? Time for you to have a shit? You talk so much of it and have
predicting the end of the world for years. Nothing you say ever comes to
pass..

99.9% of these meteors and small asteroids that encounter Earth do
burn up before reaching the surface. However, so many are now
trekking through our satellite paths, in that it's only a matter of
time before lots of bad stuff happens. Much larger stuff (<100 m) may
offer at best 24 hours before impact, and those km+ kinds of serious
impactors may only be giving us a few days warning, hardly enough time
to safely clear out of ground zero, or to get to high enough ground
should that sucker impact water.
