anyone else ever think...what if our gravity (earth) pulls on it enough resulting in a collision

it seems close enough...based on the path predictions.

I predict the banks will still be standing, until I pay my bills.

So, how soon before this happens?

On April 13, 2029, asteroid 2004 MN4 will fly past Earth only 18,600 miles (30,000 km) above the ground. For comparison, geosynchronous satellites orbit at 22,300 miles (36,000 km). "At closest approach, the asteroid will shine like a 3rd magnitude star, visible to the unaided eye from Africa, Europe and Asia--even through city lights," says Jon Giorgini of JPL. This is rare. "Close approaches by objects as large as 2004 MN4 are currently thought to occur at 1000-year intervals, on average."

Hope they have a plan (as long as we get through 12, 21 21112 first :fury::rotf2::devil2::buds::wall: )

What's up MX ?

Looks like a good fishing night. High tide is 11:15 PM EDT at 4.10 feet during a new moon to first quarter. Sets around 9:20pm. Hope the asteroid enhances the tide. I'm tying leaders as we speak...
