"That was a close call on the cosmic scale of things," Dr. Henry Holt said. A collision with Asclepius is expected to produce electricity comparable to that of a 600 megaton atomic bomb explosion, according to geophysicists. A collision would have had catastrophic effects on our planet. The asteroid was discovered on March 31, 1989, nine days after the closest approach to Earth was nine days earlier.
