| 0:00.0 | Breathe easy. Yes, the all clear has been given. NASA has said, hey, we're good. No |
| 0:11.7 | problem. Remember that asteroid that was, you know, going to hit the Earth in 2068. |
| 0:18.9 | Yeah, it's not going to. So there's no chance of it. So we're good. Sure. The same |
| 0:29.1 | 1100 foot space rock was supposed to come really close in 2029 and again in 2036. But |
| 0:36.9 | there's no chance of it, you know, coming too close to the Earth then. But the |
| 0:44.6 | 2068 collision was still possible until they've decided, you know what? No, it's not. Sure, |
| 0:53.7 | we first spotted it in 2004. It was a Poffice APO PHIS. But it is now off the risk list. |
| 1:05.4 | So take an easy deep breath. And no, we're good. It's not going to hit us. At least this |

| 2:17.2 | about a hundred ships making the transit on a single day according to 2020 data. And, you know, |
| 2:27.5 | of course, obviously we got it. There's limitations due to the size of ships making the transit |
| 2:32.3 | and tidal factors that prevail on the day. Yeah, yeah, we got it. But they expect, you know, |
| 2:39.1 | maybe a delay of 10 days to do weeks for all the vessels to, you know, get caught up. But while |
| 2:46.5 | this ship was blocking the canal, they were talking about losing or holding up, anyway, |
