Anybody have any worthwhile information on this asteroid mentioned on the news that they say has a 1 in million chance of hitting us in 12 years?

It won't hit. Yay! :D

Check out http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/ and linked pages for more info.

There are now only -2- asteroids at torino level 1 (merits monitoring).
