Don't know if it was cause a world wide panic but would be a world wide depression, till it hit anyway. I'd rather not know.
If you know, you have a chance.
But my point was that NASA lead us to believe that nothing is out there with our name on it. Just last month they released a statement saying nothing is hitting us for at least 100 years. But this shows we could be hit at literally any moment... because much of what is out there must be close to being undetectable.
And don't get me wrong, i'm not in the slightest bit worried about asteroid hits. The odds we get hit by a game changer in our lifetime are minute. But the earth will get hit again one day.
