When I installed this add-on and opened Celestia, there were huge asteroids bigger than Jupiter racing around the sun thousands of times faster than the planets. Even Mercury wasn't moving as fast as the giant asteroids. Then, I saw the Earth pass through one of the asteroids like a person falling through a cloud, and I saw no explosions! But I liked it even though it's just about the craziest add-on on this site.

Insane is for sure... 1924 TD is not just bigger than the Sun... we're talking about well over 30 million km RADIUS. Oh well at least there aren't really asteroids the size of Rigel or this many near Earth.

uuuuuuuuuuh, shall we say this takes place in a time paradox? Or simply in another universe? Or even more simply, completely fake (but insane)?

What scared me was the one larger than the sun. I laughed so hard when I turned on celestia, truly amazing.

Oh, I forgot to say that some asteroids move faster than the speed of light.

I gotta say, this add-on was insane! I can't see how an asteroid was bigger than the sun,(1924 TD) the extreme amount of asteroids and the overall craziness of this add-on. I mean that in a good way. I guess.

This add-on is actually quite frightening. If you see just THIS number of NEO's travelling near the Earth, it gives you a very REAL idea of the possible dangers we could face from collisions with asteroids.

Hillarious... It looks like a freakin' atom when you turn the asteroid orbits on.

Very cool.
