- Surprise asteroid nearly hits home - The space rock missed
our planet Friday by only 75,000 miles (120,000 km), about one-third the distance to
the moon, making the near collision one of the closest ever recorded. Cruising at 6.2
miles (10 km) per second, the big boulder could have unleashed some major firepower had it
struck, according to the NEO (Near Earth Objects) Information Center in Leicester,
England. The destructive force might have been comparable to an asteroid or comet that
exploded over Siberia in 1908, which flattened 77 square miles (2,000 square km) of trees,
according to the NEO.

only 256K of cache, at 1.80GHz, will disappear during the third calendar quarter.
