I think you'd notice if a 2 mile asteroid came within a mile of earth.

If it were a mile from earth that would put it most of the way through our atmosphere. Chances are the whole thing would explode like the Tunguska explosion in 1908. The Tunguska meteor/asteroid/whateveritwas is estimated to have been only 150 feet in diameter and leveled 800 square miles of dense forest.
