Huge asteroid passes near Earth tonight



said Aviation Administration and Space Administration (NASA) The asteroid with a diameter of half a kilometer will pass relatively close to Earth's distance night without that happening any damage. and will pass the asteroid at 1.2 million kilometers from Earth, equivalent to the distance between the earth and the moon 3 times approximately. preparing hobbyists and professionals to monitor the asteroid, which will be high-resolution visible between eight o'clock in the evening EDT and even one of Tuesday morning the same time (01:00 until 06:00 GMT on Tuesday) from the Americas, Europe and Africa . need a small telescope or Binoculars to observe the asteroid, dubbed (2004 P 86). He said astronomer without Aumans who works at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of NASA in Pasadena, in a statement, "while not pose any danger to Earth in the foreseeable future, but he approach significantly relatively large asteroid relatively so it represents an opportunity for further observation and knowledge. " was Telescope Lincoln Research near-Earth asteroids in New Mexico have discovered the asteroid in 11 years, which revolves around the sun every 1.84 years. plans scientists asteroid's surface scanning radar passes through near the ground, hoping to learn more about the size and shape and speed of rotation and other properties. He said astronomer Lance Penner, who works at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of NASA in California for the site Specoivr dot com "almost do not know at the present time nothing about this asteroid, so there will be a Surprises. " NASA said that this asteroid will be the biggest crime of its kind to pass on these near-Earth distance until the asteroid passing (1999 AN 10) flattened in 2027. Currently, NASA is monitoring more than 11 thousand asteroids in orbits relatively close to the ground . She spotted more than 95 percent of the largest asteroids ie those with a diameter of 0.65 miles or greater, which behave orbits relatively close to the ground. The offense being this size has collided with the planet earth for about 65 million years in the current location of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, which led to the climate change on the face of the planet, which is believed to be responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs and many other forms of life on earth. Two years ago, a relatively small Kokib in the atmosphere for the Chelyabinsk Russian exploded, injuring 1,500 people following the flying glass and debris. On that same day over Kokib nothing to do with the former was at 17,200 miles from the nearest land any of the special telecommunication networks around the Earth satellites. plans to websites broadcast live coverage of the passage of the asteroid night.
