Thanks for letting us know it's "walked on by". I'm really surprised they didn't catch it sooner though. THAT makes me feel really uncomfortable. It doesn't give me very much confidence in my government. What confidence I had left that is. Some drones up there should sent maybe? Just juan-der-ing. Ya know? Cheeeze!
thank you for not using doom and gloom tactics, titles etc. I was looking for one video on the subject that did not, as I saw Secure Teams video about the solar eclipse and while they went back in time checking it out via NASA telescopes etc they found a surprise eclipse just a day or 2 before with a jagged edge- not a clear edge shadow as a moon or planet would cast on our sun.
جا شنو كالو راح يصطدم بالارض خبصونه
Yeah and I farted after eating Wendy's chili that was smelt twice that far. Why the hell didn't anyone see this coming? Because it's bullshit hit and miss science.
