A huge asteroid about the size of an aircraft carrier will zoom past our planet next week, flying between the Earth and the orbit of the moon when it flies by on Tuesday (Nov. 8).
This would tie in with predictions of the end of the world coming in 2012! If it hit us!

If you're talking about the one that killed the dinosaurs then estimates are that is was about 7-10 miles wide. Hardly 1/3 the size of the earth (or moon). It does not take a lot to cause massive disruptions to the climate.

Certainly can make you feel uneasy to watch that programme about the Mayans. They have been pretty accurate with their predictions!
