An asteroid big enough to destroy New York just missed Earth and even NASA didn’t notice
An asteroid that had the potential to wreak havoc on Earth recently whizzed passed us and space boffins had no idea it was coming. The asteroid, known as 2017 VL2, shot by Earth on November 9 and experts did not find out about it until a day later. The space rock flew by just 73,000 miles from our planet – which is a third of the distance between Earth and the moon. Experts believe the asteroid is between 16 and 32 meters long, and if it hit Earth, it would have had the potential to flatten a city such as New York.

See we would all be dam dead if we relied on gov. bs to warn us LOL............... They aren't gonna save your asses and even if they knew it was coming they'd usher off all those political fks first and the slaves last. If at all.
"Asteroids coming this close (or even closer) are found from time to time by the automated surveys looking for near-Earth objects," Gianluca Masi, Director of the Virtual Telescope Project, told New Atlas. "So far this year, we had about 50 asteroids come closer than the Moon."

ASTEROID WARNING: Dangerous asteroid heading to Earth THIS WEEK
NASA was defunded by Obama.An Asshole dumb enough to destroy this country was just elected President & NASA can't say anything because it was defunded.
>>RD: An Asshole dumb enough to destroy this country was just elected President & NASA can't say anything because it was defunded.
G: NASA was defunded by Obama.<<
Ha ha. He was right for the most part except it was the dumb basturd elected in 2008.So, Fuckhead, who ran the House for 6 out of 8 of those years Obama wanted more & your GD stupid asshole party said no.
- FY 2017 - $19.2 billion. President Obama requested $18.3 billion.
- FY 2016 - $19.3 billion. Obama requested $18.5 billion. Congress allocated more.
- FY 2015 - $18.0 billion.
- FY 2014 - $17.6 billion.
- FY 2013 - $16.9 billion. Obama requested $17.7 billion. All programs were cut to comply with sequestration.
- FY 2012 - $17.8 billion appropriated by Congress. President Obama requested $18.7 billion.
- FY 2011 - $18.4 billion. Obama requested $19 billion.
- FY 2010 - $18.7 billion.
- FY 2009 - $18.8 billion. One billion came from ARRA funding. President Bush requested $17.6 billion.
- FY 2008 - $17.1 billion. Bush requested $17.3 billion. Congress cut programs in response to the financial crisis.
Ha ha. Stop posting foo. My sides are hurting. It was Obumba who had it defunded as we were discussing and he belongs to yer GD stupid asshole party ha ha.
Anything after 2011, was funding passed by the REPUBLICAN CONGRESS You freakin idiot.
2012 look at what Obama requested.
2013, the sequestration that Republicans chose so they did not have to specify what to cut.
So Fuck You & your lies.

RD, you should change your handle to FakeDave as you are full of shat.
The icing on the cake is you voted for Hillary after Obumba. She couldn't lose, FakeDave ha ha.
I posted the facts. Numbers.You're constant lying is quite amusing.Lying fuck.
lmfao gawd you crack me up when u get pissed.
you lie so much you can't tell when you are ........................... yah lying fuck <----- lmfao that so made me laugh. .....
Now you sound like Trump " everyone is lyting but me"
How many times do I need to debunk your lying posts for you to get it?
I ask myself that same thing about you.
I guess you're referring to Mars because there is NOTHING that could make DC any worse.Depends on the size of the asteroid and it's composition. You could actually make the situation worse.Wow. Holy shit. A window into the conservative mind.An asteroid detection system needs to be massively improved and our military should be focused on the defense of this planet from the very real risk of asteroids.
WTF is the point of 700 billion per year if it isn't to defend this nation? Wtf are you talking about the private sector for? Are you fucking on drugs??? Why have all these missiles and capabilities in our military and not use them for this kind of a risk.
Too late now. After Obama defunded NASA, their best and brightest went to look for work somewhere else. NASA doesn't have time for asteroids now, they're too busy trying to figure out how to put the first Muslim in outer space.
What's so crazy about nuking an asteroid that is about to hit Earth when Elon Musk wanted to nuke Mars to melt ice for water?
Eventually, one will. Sooner, rather than later.EndTimeHeadlines?

The chances of something like the one that offed the dinosaurs in our lifetime is rather slim. But you go ahead and take cover under your desk
Astronomers are using one of the world’s largest telescopes to check a mysterious object that is speeding through the solar system for signs of alien technology. The Green Bank telescope in West Virginia is listening for radio signals being broadcast from a cigar-shaped body that was first spotted in the solar system in October. The body arrived from interstellar space and reached a peak speed of 315,431kph as it swept past the sun. Scientists on the Breakthrough Listen project, which searches for evidence of alien civilizations, said the Green Bank telescope started monitoring the object, named ‘Oumuamua, yesterday. The first phase of observations was expected to last 10 hours and would tune in to four different radio transmission bands. “Most likely it is of natural origin, but because it is so peculiar, we would like to check if it has any sign of artificial origin, such as radio emissions,” said Avi Loeb, professor of astronomy at Harvard University and an adviser to the Breakthrough Listen project. “If we do detect a signal that appears artificial in origin, we’ll know immediately.”
The interstellar body, the first to be seen in the solar system, was initially spotted by researchers on the Pan-Starrs telescope, which the University of Hawaii uses to scan the heavens for killer asteroids. Named after the Hawaiian word for “messenger,” the body was picked up as it swept past Earth at 85 times the distance to the moon. While many astronomers believe the object is an interstellar asteroid, its elongated shape is unlike anything seen in the asteroid belt in our own solar system. Early observations of ‘Oumuamua show that it is about 400m long, but only one-10th as wide. “It’s curious that the first object we see from outside the solar system looks like that,” Loeb said.
An undated handout photo made available by the European Southern Observatory on Nov. 20 shows an artist’s impression of the first interstellar asteroid, ‘Oumuamua, spotted in the solar system.
The body is now about twice as far from Earth as the sun, but from that distance the Green Bank telescope can still detect transmissions as weak as those produced by a mobile phone. Loeb said that while he did not expect Green Bank to detect an alien transmission, it was worth checking. “The chances that we’ll hear something are very small, but if we do, we will report it immediately and then try to interpret it,” Loeb said. “It would be prudent just to check and look for signals. Even if we find an artifact that was left over and there are no signs of life on it, that would be the greatest thrill I can imagine having in my lifetime. It’s really one of the fundamental questions in science, perhaps the most fundamental: Are we alone?”
The Breakthrough Listen project was launched at the Royal Society in London in 2015, when Cambridge cosmologist Stephen Hawking announced the effort to listen for signs of life on planets that orbit the million stars closest to Earth. The US$100 million project is funded by Internet billionaire Yuri Milner and has secured time on telescopes in the US and Australia to search for alien civilizations. Astronomers do not have good ideas about how such elongated objects could be created in asteroid belts. By studying ‘Oumuamua more closely, they hope to learn how they might form and whether there are others in the solar system that have so far gone unnoticed. “If it’s of natural origin, there should be many more of them,” Loeb said.

A large asteroid didn't make the dinosaurs become extinct, but a global flood. An asteroid impact and volcanoes wouldn't be enough. However, you're right in that an asteroid hitting the earth is slim in our lifetime, but it has happened before. Here are the 10 biggest.

Per your link the most recent was 35 million years ago but interesting read - thanks.
And the scientific consensus on the dinos was an asteroid.

A Theory Set in Stone: An Asteroid Killed the Dinosaurs, After All
An asteroid big enough to destroy the earth? It would've left a ginormous mark greater than Yucatan and there isn't one large enough to get all the dinosaurs. Thus, they hypothesize the asteroid caused volcanoes and global warming (which doesn't make sense because the dinosaurs thrived in that environment). The power of water is one that causes the most killing of humans and animals. It would take a global flood to kill all of the dinosaurs. That said, I don't think they were all killed. Some survived and still exist to this day. Thus, the occasional report of a dinosaur-like creature being spotted.
