On Wednesday (Sept. 22), the fall equinox will bring the Earth about 12 hours of daylight, 12 hours of night and a renegade space rock measuring about three times the size of the Statue of Liberty.
This asteroid, named 2021 NY1, will sail harmlessly past our planet, according to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, but is still considered a Near-Earth Object (NEO) because it will pass within about 120 million miles (193 million kilometers) of the sun.
By that standard, asteroid 2021 NY1 will make a relatively close approach of about 970,000 miles (1,560,000 km) away from Earth — or just under four times the distance between Earth and the moon. ...
Since this asteroid is not coming too close, NASA will not have to deploy the "Stacey Defense" and can hold off until it might be more urgently needed in the future. Anonymous sources within the University of Georgia's Department of African-American Studies, Pimps & Hoes have divulged that the "Stacey Defense" entails the launching of Stacey Abrams into space so she is placed in the path of any oncoming asteroid that threatens the Earth. As the asteroid approaches her position, she will suck the asteroid into her gravity well, which NASA has nicknamed "The Black Toad Suck Hole," and pulverize the asteroid with the intense pressure of her weighty presence.
