An asteroid fly-by to be streamed live to the internet. Impressed?

I do not know which amazes me more, that we live in an era where we can sit at home in a comfortable chair and watch a live fly-by of a distant asteroid on our wireless ipads, or that we accept this as nothing special. There are truly wonderful times.
