This guy could easily front a Metal band despite being 90! I think he should.

This is the big asteroid that passed by the Earth last week



This monster is Toutatis. Toutatis is 4.8 km long and came within 4.3 million miles of the Earth.

During it`s flyby NASA trained their Deep Space Network antenna at it and captured these radar images.
