Nasa finds fewer asteroids near earth

A sky survey conducted by NASA's Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE satellite, has found there are fewer asteroids in Earth's vicinity than previously believed and that NASA has already found more than 90% of 1 kilometer asteroids that are near Earth. The news briefing held at NASA Headquarters in Washington on Sept. 29 also revealed that WISE has provided more accurate estimates of asteroid sizes for research

Nasa confirms asteroid da14 2012 might impact earth feb 16, 2013

Get A Underground Shelter Quote: www.FortTerraNova.com To avert a possible catastrophe -- this time set for February 2013 -- scientists suggest confronting asteroid 2012 DA14 with either paint or big guns. The stickler is that time has long run out to build a spaceship to carry out the operation. NASA's data shows the 60-meter asteroid, spotted by Spanish stargazers in February, will whistle by Earth in 11 months. Its trajectory will bring it within a hair's breadth of our planet, raising fears of a possible collision. It should pass within 58k miles of the earth unless earths gravity pulls it in.

Giant asteroid 433 eros flyby earth 31 jan 2012

Giant Asteroid 433 Eros Flyby Earth 31 Jan 2012 433 Eros is a near-Earth asteroid (NEA) discovered in 1898 by Carl Gustav Witt (29 Oct 1866 - 3 Jan 1946), and the first asteroid to be orbited by a probe in 2000. It is an S-type asteroid approximately 34.4×11.2×11.2 km in size, the second-largest NEA after 1036 Ganymed, and belongs to the Amor group. Eros is a Mars-crosser asteroid, the first known to come within the orbit of Mars. Objects in such an orbit can remain there for only a few hundred million years before the orbit is perturbed by gravitational interactions. Dynamical integrations suggest that Eros may evolve into an Earth-crosser within as short an interval as 2 million years, and has a roughly 50% chance of doing so over a time scale of 108--109 years. It is a potential Earth impactor, believed to be larger than the impactor that created the Chicxulub Crater that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. The NEAR Shoemaker probe visited Eros twice, first with a 1998 flyby, and then by orbiting it in 2000 when it extensively photographed its surface. On February 12, 2001, at the end of its mission, it landed on the asteroid's surface using its maneuvering jets. Music: Time Between us by Ryan Farish

Asteroid 2011ag5 could strike earth in 2040

DOWNLOAD HERE: newsdirect.nma.com.tw There is a 1 in 625 chance that a 460-foot asteroid named 2011 AG5 will strike the Earth in the year 2040, scientists have warned. The impact probability is based on an observation of only one-half of the asteroid's orbit, and could change upon further study. In 2029, the asteroid must pass through a 62-mile wide window in space, or "keyhole," in order to maintain its collision course with the planet.

Los alamos asteroid killer

LANL scientists use the Cielo supercomputer to model effects of nuclear energy source on Earth-threatening asteroid. The newest supercomputer at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Cielo, is currently working on classified nuclear weapons physics problems. However, it is sometimes used to do fascinating unclassified science when a computer model is so large that it can't be run on a smaller platform. One of the unclassified models that ran recently on Cielo -- a 1.35 petaflop/s machine built by Cray -- was a model by Robert Weaver of Theoretical Design Applications Physics that looked at how 1 megaton nuclear energy source might effect the granular asteriod Itokawa as a way to prevent a potential asteriod impact with Earth. The video was originally shown at the most recent SC11 Supercomputing Conference in Seattle.

3news: asteroid 2005 yu55 hurtles towards earth to make close call - nov. 7, 2011

"An asteroid that is bigger than an aircraft carrier will dart between the Earth and the moon this week. It will be the closest encounter by such a huge rock in 35 years. But scientists say not to worry. It won't hit. "We're extremely confident, 100 percent confident, that this is not a threat," said the manager of NASA's Near Earth Object Program, Don Yeomans. "But it is an opportunity." The asteroid named 2005 YU55 is being watched by ground antennas as it approaches from the direction of the sun. The last time it came within so-called shouting distance was 200 years ago. Closest approach will occur at 9:45am on Wednesday NZT when the asteroid passes within 325000km of Earth. That's closer than the roughly 38,6242km between the Earth and the moon. The moon will be just under 245000km from the asteroid at the time of closest approach. Both the Earth and moon are safe - "this time," said Jay Melosh, professor of Earth and atmospheric sciences at Purdue University. If 2005 YU55 were to plough into the home planet, it would blast out a crater four miles across and 520m deep, according to Melosh's calculations. Think a magnitude-7 earthquake and 70-foot-high tsunami waves. Scientists have been tracking the slowly spinning, spherical, dark-coloured object since its discovery in 2005, and are positive it won't do any damage. "We know the orbit of this object very well," Yeomans said. The asteroid stretches a quarter-mile across. Smaller objects come close all the time, Yeomans ...

Flyby of asteroid 2011 md near earth

The images for this animation were taken using a 60-cm telescope from the Črni Vrh Observatory on the night of 26 June 2011. Each exposure was of 15 seconds. The telescope was tracking on the asteroid, changing the rate of tracking between exposures. The entire sequence lasted about 4h40m, during which 635 exposures were made. At the time the asteroid was less than 200000 km from Earth. At the closest approach some 15 hours later the distance was about 20000 km.

Science bulletins: impact! tracking near-earth asteroids

Collisions between space objects are a vital part of the evolution of our Solar System. Most of Earth's impact craters have been wiped away due to plate tectonics, but evidence of such cosmic catastrophes, such as Arizona's 50000-year-old meteor crater, do remain. When is Earth due for another major blast? Meet the professional and amateur astronomers who may be the first to know: first at LINEAR, a near-earth asteroid detection facility in New Mexico, and then at the Smithsonian's Minor Planet Center, where orbits of near-earth objects are tracked for possible hits and misses. Science Bulletins is a production of the National Center for Science Literacy, Education, and Technology (NCSLET), part of the Department of Education at the American Museum of Natural History. This visualization was supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Asteroid 2005 yu55 close encounter with earth 8 nov 2011

Asteroid 2005 YU55 Close Encounter with Earth 8 Nov 2011 2005 YU55, also written as 2005 YU55, is a potentially hazardous asteroid that is 400 meters in diameter. It was discovered on 28 December 2005 by Robert S. McMillan at Steward Observatory, Kitt Peak. In February 2010 it was rated 1 on the Torino Scale. On 19 April 2010, highly accurate radar targeting by the Arecibo radio telescope reduced uncertainties about the orbit by 50 percent. This improvement eliminated any possibility of an impact with the Earth for the next 100 years. On 8 November 2011 at 23:28 UT, the asteroid will safely pass within 0.85 lunar distances of the Earth. A lunar distance of 0.85 is also 0.00217 AU (325000 km; 202000 mi). On 9 November 2011 at 07:13 UT, the asteroid will pass 0.00160 AU (239000 km; 149000 mi) from the moon. During the close approach, the asteroid should reach about apparent magnitude 11, and may be visible in high-end binoculars with an objective lens of 70mm or larger. On 19 January 2029 the asteroid will pass about 0.0019 AU (280000 km; 180000 mi) from Venus. Music: Bethoven Symphony 8

Asteroid '2011 md' to miss earth by 12000 km (7456 miles) on june 27, 2011

"Near-Earth asteroid 2011 MD will pass only 12000 kilometers (7500 miles) above the Earth's surface on Monday June 27 at about 9:30 EDT. The asteroid was discovered by the LINEAR near-Earth object discovery team observing from Socorro, New Mexico. The diagram on the left shows the trajectory of 2011 MD projected onto the Earth's orbital plane over a four-day interval. The diagram on the left gives another view from the general direction of the Sun that indicates that 2011 MD will reach its closest Earth approach point in extreme southern latitudes (in fact over the southern Atlantic Ocean). This small asteroid, only 5-20 meters in diameter, is in a very Earth-like orbit about the Sun, but an orbital analysis indicates there is no chance it will actually strike Earth on Monday. The incoming trajectory leg passes several thousand kilometers outside the geosynchronous ring of satellites and the outgoing leg passes well inside the ring. One would expect an object of this size to come this close to Earth about every 6 years on average. For a brief time, it will be bright enough to be seen even with a modest-sized telescope." neo.jpl.nasa.gov '2011 MD' FAQ by OurNewPlanets.com: Its 12.40 am (24th June, 2011) just received a alert from one of the friends about a Space Rock (ASTEROID 2011 MD) .
