Comment on What would happen to the Earth if it got booped by a giant asteroid going super slowly?

This is all assuming the asteroid is set down, so it then is under gravitational forces from the planet right?

What if the aliens just suspended it above NYC? I ask, because this is essentially sometbing that happens in the Elder Scrolls lore and I always wondered how having a rogue planet suspended only a few yards from the earth would actually affect things.
