In what sounds like a SyFy Channel movie, the internet says a skull shaped asteroid will pass by Earth on Halloween night. The problem is, it already did three years ago in 2015.

The giant skull, asteroid 2015 TB145, was spotted by NASA with an infrared telescope on Mauna Kea, HI. In 2015 the asteroid indeed looked like a skull, but currently it very likely looks nothing like it did due to space erosion. I don't even know is space erosion is an actual term, I just made it up, but I think you know what I'm getting at.

Asteroid 2015 TB145 will be 25 million miles away from from Earth on Halloween.

The internet is all kind of crazy about this "death comet" right now, but it seems it's all just a bunch of hype...I think.
