Apparently they knew it was going to miss in December.

But watch out, our future successors, Death awaits you in 2880!

2880 encounter:

If (29075) 1950 DA continues on its present orbit, it will approach near to the Earth on March 16, 2880. Over the intervening time, the rotation of the asteroid will cause its orbit to change (by the Yarkovsky effect). A preliminary analysis shows two possible pole directions. One trajectory misses the Earth by tens of millions of kilometers, while the other has an impact probability of 1⁄300.

Won't we have build some massive supergun to blast asteroids out of the cosmos by then?



And how scary is this... talk about a close call:

On March 23, 1989 the 300 metre (1,000-foot) diameter Apollo asteroid 4581 Asclepius (1989 FC) missed the Earth by 700,000 kilometres (400,000 miles) passing through the exact position where the Earth was only six hours before. If the asteroid had impacted it would have created the largest explosion on Earth in recorded history.

I'll either be dead or 70 by 2027 so I don't really care.

In any case an object a few miles across getting within a few hundred thousand miles of an object a few thousand miles across is nothing to get excited about.

Try hitting a beach ball at the bottom of your garden from your upstairs bedroom window by throwing a grain of rice to see what I mean.
