He end times are here! Run for the hills! Actually they wouldn't save you if the asteroid 2014 JO25 came crashing into earth, but luckily it won't. It is the largest asteroid to pass near the earth in some time and will be viewable by telescope when it passes by. The last asteroid of its size came by back in 2004 and clearly did not crash into earth. Astronomers should still be on the lookout.
Clearly this is a government conspiracy to hide our impending doom from us. The asteroid will be hitting us and I will be saved because I was faithful. Let me rapture into the sky with the rest of the faithful. Let all the sinners burn.
Love,

Its really cool to be reminded that hey, we aren't the only things happening in the universe. Hopefully people will look up from their phones to take a peep at the asteroid.
ReplyDeleteLeah makes a good point. Knowing that there are bigger things in life than us and our own plans lets us be more open minded about the world around us.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Katie and Leah, it is nice to be reminded that we are not the center of the universe, that actually we are a very small part of it. It really puts life into perspective when you think about it.
ReplyDeleteMaybe major events like this will prove to be a cause for us as people learning to look at the universe that is surrounding us and not the other way around.
