Frank-Walter Steinmeier may have been used as a propaganda film actor, it’s been alleged

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier may have been part of a staged propaganda stunt, according to an article published by Der Spiegel on Monday.

RT World News (RSS)

The ‘potentially hazardous’ celestial body will miss our planet by around 2 million kilometers, the US space agency says 

An asteroid the size of a large skyscraper is zipping past Earth around Halloween at a relatively close distance of just over 2 million kilometers, according to NASA estimates.

The celestial body, designated 2022 RM4, was detected last weekend and is considered “potentially hazardous” due to its parameters – which are between 330 and 740 meters (1082 to 2427 feet). Its closest approach to Earth on November 1 will make it about 2.3 million kilometers (1.4 miles) away, roughly six times more th...
