[SCCC] Fwd: [CADXA DX Talk] NASA to Broadcast Asteroid Flyby ofEarth

[Dennis Younker NE6I]

Thanks Ray, that was fun to watch. I had it on Ustream on the 60 inch in the 
living room and on CNN on the 50 inch in the great room. Fun to watch that 
rock do the fly by!

Though after watching all of the universe, earth and asteroid shows on 
Science Channel, it's a little eye opening to actually have one of these 
things come so close.

Would have been nice to have it clobber the rogue TV satellite that fell out 
of orbit a couple of years ago. That one caused us in the biz a bit of 
grief! An asteroid smashing it would have saved the day!
