Large Asteroid to Fly by Earth on a Highly Uncertain Flight Path #okc #news #wth



A Newly discovered asteroid that is on a highly uncertain orbit is expected to fly by Earth the next days. The large space rock, which is estimated to be 64 up to 140 metres in length, is predicted to whistle past our planet at 43,000 miles per hour. The asteroid called 2017 BY30 has been monitored by NASA and other agencies ever since because of the uncertain orbit. Each so-called "Near-Earth Object" is given a condition code from 0 to 9 on how certain it is of its path. Zero means NASA is certain, whereas nine is highly uncertain. The new asteroid has been given the code of nine. 2017 BY30 is expected to pass by Earth at 2.4 times the distance from us to the Moon (567,030 miles) on Feb 23rd. However, asteroid's Minimum Orbit Intersection Distance (Earth MOID) shows that this object could make an extremely close approach to our planet at a distance of 58,224 miles. http://go.nasa.gov/2lnh6I2 http://go.nasa.gov/1CZ9sZF http://bit.ly/1AJ1sbu Let's hope that we'll have more clear info about this large object the next days. Keep well and keep safe everyone! Clips, images credit: ESO, ESA/HUBBLE & NASA/JPL Music credit: YouTube Audio Library Slide - Silent Partner
