If this happens and I'm still around I'm going to one of these places to get in the direct path, don't want to limp away and spend my remaining time fighting for water, etc.

When asteroid 2024 YR4 was first detected, scientists determined the potential path of impact should the 3% collision probability become a reality. The risk corridor stretched across the eastern Pacific Ocean, northern South America, the Atlantic Ocean, Africa, the Arabian Sea, and South Asia.

Countries along this corridor included:

  • India
  • Pakistan
  • Bangladesh
  • Ethiopia
  • Sudan
  • Nigeria
  • Venezuela
  • Colombia
  • Ecuador
Luckily, new calculations have drastically reduced the asteroid's likelihood of striking Earth to almost zero, according to NASA. However, there is still a 1.7% chance that 2024 YR4 could collide with the Moon on December 22, 2032.

We will recover the video from your UAV as you record it coming down on your head. It will be awesome video, though they might not be able to show it on TV, and we will all be of the opinion that your scream was a little fakey sounding.

I had a dream the other night that a plane that was fully engulfed in flames went down on the horizon during blue hour and all I felt was regret that I didn't capture it with my drone because it was so epically beautiful.
 
Did the Astroid just hit my portfolio? Looks like I am not going to retire until 80 at this point, or maybe this astroid will bring me sweet relief in 2032.

More like we all just need to be eradicated to clean things up. We're a virus and the asteroid is the planet's antibiotics. I say do your worst.

Dammit, antibiotics are for bacteria. Not only do they not do shit for viruses, using them that way diminishes the overall effectiveness of antibiotics for combating bacteria.

Technically true. Maybe if the antibiotic is strong enough to melt your skin off it will cure it anyway. 🤷‍♂️
