Big Halloween surprise coming.
"As if Halloween needed to be any scarier, a giant skull is flying through space toward Earth.
"The (Infrared Telescope Facility) data may indicate that the object might be a dead comet, but in the Arecibo images it appears to have donned a skull costume for its Halloween flyby," said Kelly Fast, IRTF program scientist at NASA Headquarters.
Earth is in no real danger, though; NASA projects the object - officially "asteroid TB145" - will pass by Earth from about 302,000 miles away at about noon CST on Halloween.
Still, for Halloween drama it's hard to beat a giant space skull."

"Earth is in no danger.." Isn't that the usual government announcement right before disasters in the movies? Next thing, survivors are fighting off zombies or aliens.
Happy Halloween!
