          Also, the article wasn't very scientific. It didn't even say how many giraffes the asteroid's size was.

            It did use an airplane for a relative size. WTF? What kind of airplane? A piper cub? An Airbus 380? A paper airplane? 🤣

              The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                So slightly less length than a 747 or A380, close to a Concorde.
