earth

Astronomers have discovered an asteroid that has a tiny chance of colliding with Earth in December 2032.

As a kid, I was always fascinated by astronauts and space in general. I loved the Star-Trek movies and all though I realize that those movies are all fake It never stopped me from nerding out when I got to see what kinds of things NASA was up to just above our planet.

The moon orbits Earth at about 238,855 miles. The International Space Station orbits Earth at about 260 miles. That's quite a difference. So, what would it look like if they switched, and the moon orbited the Earth at 260 miles?

Growing up, I always wanted to be an Astronaut...then I heard you need like 78 years of school, and you had to be smart, so now I'm a DJ (no school or smarts needed) Thanks to modern technology, we can all see what the astronauts see. Here's a cool time-lapse video of our world courtesy of the cats at NASA...
