Nasa's NEOWISE project has identified 47,000 potentially hazardous asteroids The WISE survey now estimates there are 47,000 'potentially hazardous' asteroids. THE COUNTRIES LIKELY TO BE WORST AFFECTED BY AN ASTEROID STRIKE The top 10 countries most likely to be affected are, in in no particular order: China Indonesia India Japan The U.S The Philippines Italy Britain Brazil Nigeria The PHAs - potentially hazardous asteroids - have the closest orbits to Earth's, coming within five million miles and they are big enough to survive passing through Earth's atmosphere and cause damage on a regional, or greater, scale. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2145699/New-Nasa-sky-scan-reveals-47-000-hazardous-near-Earth-asteroids-330ft-wide--BIGGER.html |

What part of 'within 5 million miles' didn't you understand? The PHAs - potentially hazardous asteroids - have the closest orbits to Earth's, coming within five million miles and they are big enough to survive passing through Earth's atmosphere and cause damage on a regional, or greater, scale. Trust the Daily Wail to take this NASA analysis to the 'public danger' level! It's pretty obvious they only mention it because the UK is on that list as well! |
