A massive asteroid roughly the size of an entire football stadium that was discovered only months ago is passing by the Earth this week, with professional and amateur astronomers alike having the best chance to watch the flyover on Thursday.

Officially named Asteroid 2014 HQ124, the giant hunk of space mass has been nicknamed the Beast because, at an estimated size of over 1,000 feet wide, it is roughly the size of a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier. Initial estimates guessed that the body’s diameter was between 400 to 900 meters (1,312 to 2,953 feet), although NASA’s NEOWISE has determined the Beast is closer to 325 meters. (The meteor that exploded over Chelyabinsk, Russia measured between 17 to 20 meters in diameter.)

An object of such size could obviously pose a huge threat to Earth, although the Beast will fly no closer to the planet than 3.2 lunar distances (roughly equivalent to 716,500 miles). It would only take an object of about 100 feet wide to be destructive to Earth, according to Wired magazine.

Asteroid or glitch? Strange glowing rock believed to be in our solar system......heading for Earth?

Asteroid or glitch? Strange glowing rock believed to be in our solar system......heading for Earth?(DM).A user has found a ‘huge asteroid’ while scanning the virtual heavens using Googly Sky. Youtube user planetkrejci, who has investigated other anomalies on NASA pictures, claims the object – found using the Google website which transports the heavens to desktop computers and smartphones – is an asteroid which is heading towards Earth.
He says the asteroid – which, if real, has not been spotted by other scientists or astronomers – has only appeared recently on Google Sky, which receives updated images every few months. Announcing his find on YouTube, he says the black object, mottled with green spots, is so clear that it must be within the solar system. The user had been exploring the region a few months earlier, and had ‘bookmarked’ a spot just to the left of the asteroid – so he is certain the object was not there previously. One thing that planekrejci does not substantiate is his claim that the object is moving towards the Earth, as it is not apparent how this calculation could be obtained without more information than the image provides. However, if planetkrejci has found a new object, it will be quite an achievement for an earth-bound Internet user to discover a new object in our solar system before NASA or other observatories. The object is easy to find on Google Sky, by typing in the co-ordinates 5h 11m 33.74s -12 50′ 30.09″ – although conspiracy theorists might read something into the fact that the search function on Google Sky is currently down.Read and see the full story here.


 

Russia- Ural - Huge ice blocks found shattered in the Ural River residents stunned

Huge ice blocks found shattered in the Ural River residents stunned.(KTkz).
Unbelievable but true - superhuman size lumps found in the Ural River by local residents. Eyewitnesses say that this is nothing more than tricks of the aliens. How else to explain that the huge blocks of ice, as children's toys are scattered within a radius of 20 meters.
Paul Singilevtsev, huntsman Rubezhinskogo Forestry:
- I walked away from there, I saw, I thought they were trees, poles lie far away it seemed like logs. And when he came close he noticed - the ice. This I have not seen in my life for 50 years for the first time.
The Hunter, not a little frightened, immediately called emergency services on site. The only thing that could tell experts: the chemical composition of the river old and radiation, either. According to one version, the ice was exploded to allow poachers to fish. But, according to foresters, they don't fish in this place. Meanwhile, in the Uralsk today persistently rumored that in the vicinity of the river fell a svyatyaschiysya object. It is true that the witnesses of this event, however, as aliens, to find it was not possible.Nikolai Sitnikov, Mayor Rubezhinskogo rural district:
- No sound or anything of the incident, nor the explosion of the residents have not heard anyone, not specific to say. The place is pretty dull.
Hmmmm.......Besides the suggestion of a UFO, other possibilities may be a meteor or satellite crash.
