Eerie 'death comet' with a SKULL face will zip past Earth just after Halloween (but don't worry, it will be 25 MILLION miles away)


A 'death comet' will be zipping passed earth just after Halloween this year.

The asteroid with a skull-like face will make its second trip near earth in three years after flying a worrisome 302,000 miles from our planet on October 31, 2015.

This year, the comet will be a much more comfortable 24million miles away on November 11, Mother Nature Network reported.

The comet, officially recognized as 2015 TB145, has a few nicknames including 'Halloween asteroid', 'death comet' and 'The Great Pumpkin' by NASA.

The 2000-foot-wide rock gets the name 'death comet' not only because of its human skull face, but because it's believed to have been long-dead.

Numerous passes around the sun likely stripped the comet of its volatiles, according to Mother Nature Network.

'We found that the object reflects about 6 percent of the light it receives from the sun,' said Vishnu Reddy, a research scientist at the Planetary Science Institute in Tucson, Arizona said in 2015.

'That is similar to fresh asphalt, and while here on Earth we think that is pretty dark, it is brighter than a typical comet which reflects only 3 to 5 percent of the light. That suggests it could be cometary in origin — but as there is no coma evident, the conclusion is it is a dead comet,' Reddy said.

The Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia captured the asteroid in the early morning hours of Halloween 2015 during a different period in its rotation.

The 2015 flyby was the closest the eerie comet has come to earth.

In this lifetime, the comet's next closest visit will occur on November 1, 2088, at an even more comfortable distance of just over 5 million miles from earth.

How is 5 million miles an "even more" comfortable distance than 24 million miles?

I think they were comparing it to the 2015 fly-by at a distance of only 302,000 miles.

Is that Para's comet?

I think it is. They fucked up calculating the trajectory. INCOMING! INCOMING!

Don’t make excuses for the shitty writing of that article. He already said that 24 million miles was a “much more” comfortable distance before going on to say that 5 million was “even more” comfortable.

Not to worry...He-Man will will corral it up

It's a sign. We're all doomed. Well at least there's solace in knowing that the lefties won't win the mid-terms, after all.

When did He-Man come out? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

If it still had a comet tail, I was thinking the Death Eater/Dark Mark symbol from Harry Potter.

I think the big question here is whether or not this comet is taking orders from Para.

everyone knows that "even more" is less comfortable than "much more"

It looks like the mouth is open and it’s shouting “Move outta the way! MOVE!”
