A 10-meter diameter asteroid hitting the Earth is a 1 in 100 year event. If the Earth were hit by a 10-meter diameter asteroid sometime in 2018, how would the odds of the Earth being hit by a different 10-meter asteroid in 2019 compare to the odds of the Earth being hit by a different 10-meter asteroid in 2118? Please explain your answer
