Bus-Size Asteroid Gives Earth Super-Close Shave Today, Second in 2 Days!!

For the second day in a row, a space rock is going to zip close by Earth within the orbit of the moon, and you can watch the encounter live online.

The 33-foot-wide (10 meters) near-Earth asteroid 2014 EC will come within 34,550 miles (55,600 kilometers) of Earth's surface this evening (March 6) — just 14 percent of the distance between our planet and the moon, which is about 239,000 miles (385,000 km) on average.

The online Virtual Telescope Project will attempt webcast today's asteroid flyby liv. You can watch live webcast of asteroid 2014 EC live on Space.com beginning at 2:30 p.m. EST (1930 GMT), courtesy of the Virtual Telescope Project. Or you can go directly to the project's website: http://www.virtualtelescope.eu/webtv/


2014 EC, which was discovered just Tuesday (March 4), is about half as wide as the asteroid that exploded over Russia in February 2013, injuring about 1,500 people. There is no danger that 2014 EC will hit Earth on this pass, researchers stress; the chances that it will ever strike the planet are currently estimated at 1 in 2.7 million.

 "The asteroid will reach an apparent magnitude of about 13.6 near closest approach," said Don Yeomans, manager of NASA's Near-Earth Object program office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif.

The flyby of 2014 EC follows closely on the heels of another space rock encounter. On Wednesday (March 6), the 100-foot-wide (30 m) asteroid 2014 DX110 zoomed by the Earth, passing inside the orbit of the moon at a range of 217,000 miles (350,000 km).

MY THOUGHTS

This is the second asteroid in two days in a row!  It seems apparent to me that when someone is trying to get your attention that they fire a couple of shots just over your head.

The Lord Our God is doing just that.  He is trying to get you to look up and these are signs and wonders in the heavens.

LOOK UP!  GOD WANTS YOUR ATTENTION!

Luke 21:28
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

MY THOUGHTS More about the late Dr. (Father) Malachi Martin and his prediction about the Antichrist can be found in the best seller Petrus Romanus The Final Pope Is Here  by Thomas Horn & Cris Putnam, Defender Publishing, Crane, MO (see my recommended reading list on this blog).  See chapters 3 and 4 specifically.    From the Back Cover " The Enthronement of the Fallen Archangel Lucifer was effected within the Roman Catholic Citadel on June 29, 1963; a fitting date for the historic promise about to be fulfilled. As the principal agents of this Ceremonial well knew, Satanist tradition had long predicted that the Time of the Prince would be ushered in at the moment when a Pope would take the name of the Apostle Paul [Po

BLOOD MOON SIGNS: What Does It Mean?

Image
  There has been a lot of talk and discussion about the Blood Moons phenomenon this year.   Every time you turn around someone's posting a video or blog about them.   But what does this mean to you, to Israel, or to the world? We know the first blood moon is April 15, 2014.   And that is the date on the Gregorian calendar.   This is the calendar you and I use every day.    Basically, it is the world's calendar.   But there is another calendar, the Hebrew calendar used by Israel.   However, the Hebrew calendar is God's calendar.   So, April 15, 2014 is also Nisan 15, 5774 which seems strange to us, but not to God or the Jews.   God has been using His calendar since the beginning of time! In the Bible when God was freeing the Israelites from Egypt, He told Moses about His 'feasts' and 'seasons', which in Hebrew is translated as the word 'moed'. Moed means 'divine appointment'. So, the first divine appointment is Passover.
