Asteroid To Pass Closer Than Moon

Luke 21:25,26 “There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.

An asteroid is going to blow past Earth tomorrow closer than the moon’s orbit.

The asteroid, named 2014 DX110, will pass within about 9/10th of the moon’s orbit at around 33,000 miles per hour.  The Virtual Telescope Project is planning to provide live online coverage of the asteroid’s passing starting around 3:30 p.m. eastern time tomorrow.

The asteroid is believed to be the size of three double decker busses.

The asteroid is classified as a “Apollo class” asteroid, meaning that it passes through the Earth’s orbit.  If the asteroid were to strike Earth, it would leave a crater up to 20 times its size.

If that were to happen, it would throw enough dust into the sky that it would darken the planets for years.
