Sheeeeeit. China is so far away from mining on the moon as to be laughable.

I know that because china can only steal tech from the USA, and we're also very far away from it.

And let's say we did get a 10-man "mine" up and running on the Moon, today. We're a century away from anyone having a big enough operation as to interfere with someone elses.

It's going to get interesting when they find out the moon is hollow... :D

Who else saw Moonfall?

Someone or something might be trying to get in touch.

$100 says it turns out to be saying, "Drink your Ovaltine."

It's usually a neutron star.

Also, if another galaxy, they tried making contact 60k years ago.

Are you trying to say that Ovaltine comes from neutron stars?!

MSN claims AP7 is confirmed to hit us.

Been nice knowing you all. I'll see you in hell.

Weird.
The term “planet killer” may sound scary but as far as 2022 AP7 goes, it will be staying “well away” from Earth for now, according to Sheppard.

“It has no chance to hit the Earth currently,” he told Euronews Next in an email.

Slowly, over time, the asteroid will start to cross Earth’s orbit closer to where the Earth is, but this will be centuries into the future

As things stand, 2022 AP7 crosses Earth’s orbit. This makes it a potentially hazardous asteroid, he said.

However, the crossing occurs at a time when the Earth is on the other side of the sun, he explained, adding that this configuration will continue for the foreseeable future.
