Astronomers Identify Near Earth Asteroid
Astronomers are warning us that a near Earth asteroid the size of an aircraft carrier will be coming very, very close to us this weekend. This asteroid will be passing by Earth 15 percent closer than the moon, which in astronomical terms is pretty darn close!
Interestingly, these astronomers describe the asteroid as a dark sphere. Wait just one minute, did they say dark sphere? Where have I read about a dark sphere falling from space and crashing into the ocean. Could it be another incident of life taking a page out of my novel Falling Star?

I've decided to call my Goodreads Author blog, "The Eclectic." As you get to know me, you will find that I have lived my life as an eclectic, enjoy a wide range of interests from Art to Zoology and can be found reading about Supreme Court decisions along with the latest theories of alien abduction.
How did I get this way? Most probably as the result of an insatiable appetite to understand what is happening around me.
Please join me for conversations on anything that comes to mind. One day I may write about the fallacy of "originalism" with respect to the United States Supreme Court. Another day, we'll talk about Sasquatch and other crytozoological wonders.
Occasionally, I will drop in a cartoon or two from my cartoon blog, There is Strangeness in the Universe.
Hope you'll chime in with your comments as well and we will have a delightful conversation exploring all that is great in this world.
