2012 DA14






























This is so ironic,the same day that a meteorite hits Russia we in India get a chance to see a massive asteroid
 pass overhead.This will put into perspective how huge the universe is. The best viewing site is going to be in Indonesia
 however to view it you would be needing a good pair of binoculars as it would be to dim to view it.This asteroid is so massive
 that if were to hit earth it would release 2.5 megatons of energy into the atmosphere causing large scale devastation 
but there is no reason to fear as the asteroid will be thousand of kilometers away.So enjoy the view at around 11:30 IST.
