This video, will cheat you, and you will be glad it did. In three years, a gigantic asteroid nicknamed the “God of Chaos,” will fly so close to Earth, 90% of you will be able to see it with your naked eye. it’ll be closer to us than the orbit of some of our satellites. It’s a 20-million-ton monster, coming to pulverize Earth. Or it might miss us.

So what is the size of this asteroid, and how close does it actually come to us? I need to see this in person to figure it out. And to do that, we need to get inside our solar system, and experience first hand what it’s like for an asteroid that travels through it. So What if we shrunk the solar system, into a single city? And what if we walked it in a single day?
