A bus-sized asteroid came within 54,000 miles of Earth on Oct 2 and on Oct 12 a rock of a similar size came within 27,000 miles of our planet's surface.
You wait ages for an asteroid and then two come along at once.

I heard the nearest miss was one than whizzed past the earth a metre right.

If it hit say, Blackpool, it would probably do about £150 worth of damage.

we didn't know about them until recent years. Very few really big hits last few hundred years. I think Tunguska was a comet like the Jupiter hit.
