That perhaps there's some significance to this astroid. Maybe there is a specific date when the astroid comes closer to earth. I think I remember somewhere AR talking about stopping Iris.

That website has a program at the bottom that lets you track the path of the asteroid. I'm going to fiddle around with it.

EDIT: 7 Iris lines up perfectly with the Earth and the Sun here:

EDIT 2: As I mention here: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=19732&start=75 . Saturn also lines up if you zoom out. All 3 planets (Saturn, Venus, Earth) and the Sun line up with Iris on August 25, 2007, one month before Halo 3's release.

The alignment definitely seems like something to keep in mind. What comes from planets aligning?

I couldn't find anything after a quick search, but it might be worth looking into some interpretations of the occurrence.
