: 2011 SM68 is coming close in 2016 and 2019.  (292220) 2006 SU49 is coming close in 2029.  (99942) Apophis is close in 2029.  2012 MU2 is close in 2015.  2014 DA is close in 2027. -- See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torino_Scale for list of object which have ever been considered at risk of hitting earth.  Giving the timing, I would think that "2011 SM68" is the closest match for Randall's timeline, as the 2016 passage would give additional data for a probability of hitting earth in 2019 -- and two years after that everybody would know what hit them :-(  [[Special:Contributions/199.27.128.209|199.27.128.209]] 06:17, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

:As far as I know, it is called snow blindness only when it is caused by snow or ice and the same condition is called by the medical term photokeratitis in desert. There are [http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/risk/ no known Earth-crossers around 2020 that would be really worth mentioning] (2009 JF1 has the highest probability) but the problem is that [http://www.techtimes.com/articles/4101/20140306/asteroid-2014-dx110-barely-misses-earth-flyby-serves-as-warning-of-possible-doomsday.htm we might not know the object yet] (especially if it would be a comet) [[User:Sten|'''S<small>TEN</small>''']] <small>([[User talk:Sten|talk]])</small> 22:23, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
