An asteroid detected by NASA and due to pass by the Earth next month has spawned concern from a conspiracy-minded astronomer who believes that it is actually heading right for us!
The object, dubbed '2016 WF9,' was discovered by astronomers only a few weeks ago in a testament to how truly vulnerable the Earth is to unseen asteroids.
Although the space agency says that the object will not pose any danger to the planet, a rogue astronomer insists that NASA is lying to the world.
