Here’s a Livestream of the Asteroid That’s Headed Towards Earth

This morning’s meteorite impact in Russia had nothing at all to do with the massive asteroid that’s scheduled to barely graze by Earth this afternoon, it turns out–that one’s still on its way. Asteroid 2012 DA14, at 50 meters in diameter, will zoom by without disturbing our planet, according to NASA, but it’s understandable if you’re a little uneasy.

Here’s a livestream broadcasting the big rock’s flyby as observed from Australia’s Gingin Observatory. It’s scheduled to make its closest pass at 2:24PM, EST.
