Giant asteroid the size of 1,000 capybaras to pass Earth Tuesday - NASA

Asteroid 349507 (2008 QY) is around 1.2 kilometers in diameter, or around 1,000 capybaras – large enough that an impact event (which won't happen now) could be a worldwide catastrophe.

A metric ton is 1000 kg. Source: Aerospace Military Industrial Complex drug dealer.

Yea, but the dealers only go to 900kg, because of their commission.

It’s both, or rather all three, because the Brits have their own ton as well.
