An asteroid over 1,000 feet will pass by Earth this weekend, and while it's not expected to hit our planet, it is estimated to be worth nearly $5 billion. The asteroid 4660 Nereus, discovered in 1982, is classified as a "potential hazardous asteroid" by NASA due to its size and how close it approaches Earth. At approximately 1,083 feet, it is 20 feet taller than the Eiffel Tower. There are less than 10,000 near-Earth objects the same size or bigger than 4660 Nereus, according to NASA. The asteroid, which EarthSky reports travels through space at around 14,719 mph, orbits the sun every 664 days, and about once every decade, it gets relatively close to Earth. However, the asteroid will come the closest it's ever been to Earth since it's discovery. On Saturday, the asteroid will be around 2.4 million miles away from Earth.

God, but are you not just the epitome of stupidity, so quick to jump on things you believe to be wrong yet are right.
