March 23 = National Near Miss Day Back in 1989, an March 23 = National Near Miss Day
Back in 1989, an asteroid called 4581 Asclepius missed Earth by a very small margin. A true “that was close” moment.

Small issues caught early are a whole lot easier than last-minute emergencies.

A little prevention goes a long way.
