    It'd be cool if it hit the near side of the moon,... and didnt do toooo much damage

    Actually I have to wonder what would happen if it hit the moon. It might just add another crater, but I'd almost worry about splash damage, as it were.

    It's such a small rock. It's not going to kick up anything off the moon that is big enough that could be a threat to Earth.

    It'd wipe that smug face off of the moon. :bailey:

    Actually, I wonder if it were the right composition if it'd tweak the moon's orbit.

    Hmmm.

    At 400 meters?

    The moon would laugh it off.
