Fake Apocalypse - asteroid

George is supervillian, and he has a evil plan but he needs a distraction to pull it off. Earlier today he was reading supervillian weekly and he saw an article on faking the Apocalypse and he want to try it.

The plan:

1. Hack into the major telescopes of the world make it appear that there is a world ending meteorite on its way to earth.

2. Panic ensues everyone believes the world is ending police and the world are distracted.

3. The world returns to normal when the "fake asteroid" gets close enough that it should be visible to the naked eye or simple telescopes that can't be hacked.

How large does the asteroid have to be?

How long can the distraction last if the George is only able to hack a few dozen telescopes?

Are there other problems that George has overlooked? other than his mediocre supervillian name.
