about the Asteriod 2012 DA14 near miss that's going on today? I feel like the last person to find these things out lol.
Here's an article about it along with external links to NASA and other places streaming footage of whats going on and a vague outline of what's going to be showing and when: http://cosmiclog.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/02/15/16966984-watch-asteroid-2012-da14-buzz-past-harmlessly-via-streaming-video?lite

I can't copy and past! How do you do that on here?!!
Below the 4th picture on that link it states that a news agency reported it, I just re read it so I guess no one knows for sure if it actually was shot down or not. It states that they quoted a military source so who knows. I didn't read that part the first time (about the news agency).
Oh I hadn't read about the military shooting at it I read that it burned up & shattered at low altitude.
Quoting blueyedbaker:
What I thought was neat was reading that the military shot missiles at it. I wonder if the public was notified that meteorites were headed that way and that the military was going to shoot them to bits?
Quoting usmom3:
I did know about it! Did you know that a meteorite hit Russia this morning? Here is a link to an article.
