Merry Christmas!

This year's fun christmas fact - scientists have just discovered an asteroid with a 1 in 64 chance of impacting the earth!

Not until 2029 though, so you have 24 more Christmas Day's to live through!

In case you haven't seen the update on /., the probability has "improved" to a 1 in 45 chance of collision.

Of course, it'll probably be one we don't see coming that'll actually give Earth the ol' 10,000-100,000 megaton-equivalent love-tap...
