"NEO Earth Close Approaches" – NASA/JPL's Near-Earth Object Program Office "NEO Earth Close-Approaches" (Between 1900 A.D. and 2200 A.D., NEOs with H <=22, nominal distance within 5 LD) – NASA/JPL's Near-Earth Object Program Office "Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs): A Chronology of Milestones" – International Astronomical Union; NEODyS-2 ...
Area code 940 is a telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for the U.S. state of Texas in the Wichita Falls and Denton areas. It was created on July 7, 1997, in a split from area code 817 .
A106fgF, a 2–5 m asteroid which either passed extremely close or impacted Earth on 2018-01-22. 2018 RC, near earth asteroid on 2018-09-03 (notable because it was discovered more than a day prior to closest approach on 2018-09-09). [43] A10bMLz, unknown space debris, so-called "empty trash bag object" on 2019-01-25. [44]
The space rock last made a pass of Earth in 2013, and will make another approach in 2035, according to Nasa’s data. The object was first spotted by Nasa’s Near-Earth Object (NEO) Observations ...
The Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) is the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's (JPL's) facility for computing asteroid and comet orbits and their probability of Earth impact. [1] [2] CNEOS is located at, and operated by, Caltech in Pasadena, California. CNEOS computes high-precision orbits for Near-Earth Objects (NEOs).
1950 DA made distant approaches to Earth on 20 May 2012, 5 February 2021 and 5 February 2023. [17] However, at these times it was a quarter to half an AU away from Earth, preventing more useful astrometrics and timing that occurs when an object is closer to Earth. The next close approach that presents a good opportunity to observe the asteroid ...
Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous – Shoemaker (NEAR Shoemaker), renamed after its 1996 launch in honor of planetary scientist Eugene Shoemaker, was a robotic space probe designed by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory for NASA to study the near-Earth asteroid Eros from close orbit over a period of a year.
(A) List includes near-Earth approaches of less than 5 lunar distances (LD) of objects with H brighter than 18. (B) Nominal geocentric distance from the Earth's center to the object's center (Earth radius≈0.017 LD). (C) Diameter: estimated, theoretical mean-diameter based on H and albedo range between X and Y.
