Thank you my friend Maj William W. 'Bill' Price for posting the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) for Sunday, August 29, 2021 entitled "Orbits of Potentially Hazardous Asteroids."

This is an interesting projection of likely paths of asteroids in this solar system. Since God created all of creation, HE sustains the creation, and HE works all to good for those who love HIM and are called according to HIS purposes, and HE admonishes us that the creation will be destroyed by fire at the end of the age it is expected that meteorites will penetrate the barrier of the boundary of earth's atmosphere.
'And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.' [Romans 8:28-29 ESV]
APOD background
"Explanation: Are asteroids dangerous? Some are, but the likelihood of a dangerous asteroid striking the Earth during any given year is low. Because some past mass extinction events have been linked to asteroid impacts, however, humanity has made it a priority to find and catalog those asteroids that may one day affect life on Earth. Pictured here are the orbits of the over 1,000 known Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs). These documented tumbling boulders of rock and ice are over 140 meters across and will pass within 7.5 million kilometers of Earth -- about 20 times the distance to the Moon. Although none of them will strike the Earth in the next 100 years -- not all PHAs have been discovered, and past 100 years, many orbits become hard to predict. Were an asteroid of this size to impact the Earth, it could raise dangerous tsunamis, for example. To investigate Earth-saving strategies, NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) is planned for launch later this year. Of course rocks and ice bits of much smaller size strike the Earth every day, usually pose no danger, and sometimes creating memorable fireball and meteor displays."

Our youngest son spent a tour at Vandenburg AFB tracking these objects and the ones we sent up ourselves! Definitely crowded up there Maj William W. 'Bill' Price
