Just wondering what you guys think about tomorrows passing of 2005 YU55. I for one think it's pretty awesome that something like this is happening so close to home. It's not all too often that we get to claim any cool cosmic happenings occur around Earth. It'll be the only such occurance until 2028 and thats the one we have to worry about

I wish I had a good telescope to look at it.
