Unconfirmed reports show that the troubled asteroid could be close...

Look out for that asteroid!"

It is a natural history tale that every third grader knows: The
dinosaurs ruled the Earth for hundreds of millions of years, until an
asteroid struck.... Hmmm now man rules over the world same thing can
happen all over again... I just warning ye...

Asteroid 2006 VV2 will be passing close to the Earth at the end of
March and in the early part of April 2007, just a few days away.

Its closest approach is on March 31st where it will be just under nine
times the distance between the Moon and the Earth, about 3.4 million
kilometers. The Earth and Moon are about 385,000 kilometers (240,000
miles) apart.

Observers should be able to see it through small telescopes as it
becomes a 10th magnitude asteroid while racing across the sky through
the constellation Leo between March 31st and April 1st. Asteroids are
also called minor planets or planetoids--that is, a rock that drifts
in space as it orbits around the Sun.

The asteroid is estimated to be about two kilometers (1.2 miles) in
diameter. There's a small chance that it may consist of two asteroids,
or a binary system.

Asteroid 2006 VV2 was discovered by the LINEAR program from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on November 11, 2006, at
White Sands Missile Range in Socorro, New Mexico. Due to its close
approach to the Earth, 2006 VV2 is classified as a "Potentially
Hazardous Asteroid"
