Wonder what it could have been?

Terrorists attacking Jupiter Smile it happened on 9/11.
Heard the news this morning. Turns out some scientists and amateur astronomers believe that if it wasn't for Jupiter's massive size that object could have possibly collided with earth. So thank you Jupiter Smile

Looks like nibiru didn't put Jupiter into it's calculations hehe.
The object wasn't the size of earth, just the resulting fireball. And I doubt very much that if Jupiter didn't get in the way it would have hit earth. The solar system is a big and mostly empty (in 3D anyway) place.
Hi All,
I also heard the news that Object the size of Earth hits Jupiter.Astronomers are checking their telescopes for records of a brief, brilliant flash of light on Jupiter.The latest is an opportunity to study not only frequency with which Jupiter gets struck by small to medium-sized objects but also how it helps shield all of us here on Earth.
