Asteroid misses Earth by only 45,000 miles.
Impact would have been equivalent to 1000
atomic bombs.

At just 65 to 164 feet (20 t o 50 meters) wide, the asteroid "was much fainter than anything visible to the naked eye" even during close approach, Spahr said.
Wouldn't be fun, but not that big or unusual. Not sure why this was
