Man, Martian really broke down that other thread

Why is it always less interesting/fun when somebody with the actual facts gives you a status update

Anybody else feel that they made the asteroid look way to big compared to the size of the earth if it was only 500km in diameter?

At 500km, it would be 1/25th of the Earth's diameter. At 0:56, it looks about that size. Could be an exaggeration of +/-100km.

To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Wouldn't something that big be enough to knock earth out of orbit?
