We Dodged an Asteroid, but What Unseen Dangers Lurk in the Skies?

If you were among those who predicted that a massive asteroid would slam into Earth last weekend, pour yourself a cup of coffee and relax. You’re still here, but it was a near miss.
The 2-mile-wide chunk of rock about a quarter of the size of Mount Everest zipped past the U.K. as Britons snuggled in their beds, passing about a million miles closer than NASA had predicted. The asteroid was more than 15 times larger than any of the other space objects being tracked by the space agency. [1]
