Now my title gives a mixed message I am sure. One minute I said this asteroid is going to miss earth. Next I said it is coming and last I said are you ready? The reason is simple. It is to miss us. I sure hope it does!!! The date for the fly by is June 27, 2011. My question is really - Am I ready if some how the scientists have miss calculated the impact of the asteroid? I have to say that my preparation is not set for a massive impact event. I am though ready for a more minor event such as an earthquake. I live in earthquake country.
All events such as this only remind me that I need to stay current in my 3 month supply of food storage and supplies.
Here is a link to the a model video of how the scientists think it will be.
