The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain ablaze with fire was hurled into the sea. So a third of the sea became blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed. (Revelation 8:8-9 CSB)
The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from heaven. It fell on a third of the rivers and springs of water. The name of the star is Wormwood, and a third of the waters became wormwood. So, many of the people died from the waters, because they had been made bitter. (Revelation 8:10-11 CSB)
An asteroid, named Asteroid 2019 OK whizzed past earth within a distance of 73,000 km on Thursday 2019-07-25. It was estimated to be 57 to 130 meters wide and was speeding towards Earth at 24 kilometres a second. The sudden appearance of the asteroid took NASA scientist by surprise. It was not detected until a few days before Thursday. If it hit earth, it would have done so with an energy over 30 times the atomic blast of Hiroshima, enough to destroy a large city.
On 2013-02-16 at 3:25 a.m. Singapore time (15-02-2013 19:25 GMT), an asteroid named 2012 DA14 past Earth at a distance of about 27,680 km above Indonesia.
We had two misses. But not to worry, in future, there will be two asteriods that will not miss. I am not sure if the scientists of that day will detect the two asteroids. But even if they did, they cannot prevent them from hitting earth.
