            I heard about it this morning - apparently its going to miss us by 17,000 miles; must have its trajectory based on a government policy or something.......

              Possibly...

              ...and it will be travelling at a speed of around five miles per second. That's even faster than a Lib Dem cabinet minister in a car. :runforhills:

                Thing that worries me is the definition of a near miss.

                Surely a near miss is a hit.??????

                  Good point Zigs.

                  The other thing is, telling us that it is going to miss us by 17,000 miles is a bit like someone warning Elle MacPherson that I am might take her out to dinner - - neither is going to happen!
