\"\"Three asteroids will fly past Earth this weekend.<\/p>\n

\"\"NASA<\/a> expects the asteroids to make ‘close approaches’ with Earth on Saturday, within about 4 hours of each other.<\/p>\n

The largest of the trio, dubbed 2018 VR1, is as long as a blue whale. The space rock’s trajectory will take it to within 3.12 million miles of Earth.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, you will need a satellite to see them, as they are out of range for amateur equipment.<\/p>\n

\"\"Here is the latest social media debate; What colour are Oreos<\/a>, brown or black?<\/p>\n

\"\"The parent company says, “We do not have a colour assigned to the cookie portion of an Oreo. Some people think the Oreo is a shade of brown, while others view the colour closer to black.”<\/p>\n

\"\"So which is it really? Well, they’re made from cocoa beans, which are brown. But the cocoa is processed with alkali, which darkens the powder a lot, in fact, cocoa powder with alkali is called “black cocoa powder.”<\/p>\n

In other words: They can’t tell you whether they’re brown or black, so it’s on you to fight it out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sunday is Remembrance Day, commemorating the end of WWI at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918.
