At approximately 14:00:00 UTC, the asteroid Xylophia-4 entered Earth's orbit and made contact with the planet's upper atmosphere. The impact was minor, causing only slight cosmetic damage to the planet's atmosphere.
The asteroid's trajectory was deemed 'unpredictable' by astronomers, who claim it was 'totally not a surprise' to anyone who 'has been paying attention.'
Further investigation is pending, but it's likely the asteroid will be 'sent back on its merry way' soon.
