Cancer Posted November 2, 2022 Report Share Posted November 2, 2022 Rats. Gotta find a new place to hide the things. Quote Abstract We are conducting a survey using twilight time on the Dark Energy Camera with the Blanco 4 m telescope in Chile to look for objects interior to Earth's and Venus' orbits. To date we have discovered two rare Atira/Apohele asteroids, 2021 LJ4 and 2021 PH27, which have orbits completely interior to Earth's orbit. We also discovered one new Apollo-type Near Earth Object (NEO) that crosses Earth's orbit, 2022 AP7. Two of the discoveries have diameters ≳1 km. 2022 AP7 is likely the largest Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) discovered in about eight years....

The kids will never stop fighting with each other; Carol's notion of a hostile gesture was a frown; Mike would just look lost and wonder what was going on. Alice might get a little upset, but she's too outnumbered. Just make sure not to leave any rolling pins within reach. The truly, utterly terrifying such creature would have 4 heads...the Bundys.
